Quiet nights give way to busy days at this BLM dispersed site in Inyo National Forest, where a small parking loop doubles as the trailhead for a 0.2-mile walk to the hot springs. Day visitors arrive early and continue through the afternoon, so overnight campers share the space with steady foot traffic. The lot fits roughly eight cars. Cell service is available, and pets are welcome. Campers heading into the area can find campgrounds near Toms Place and nearby options including McGee Creek RV Park & Campground about half a mile east. Arriving on a weeknight improves the odds of a quieter stay.
