Rustic, no running H20, shaded, near reservoir

Loved this 'lil place due to FCFS, 1st come, 1st serve availabilities and the nature that makes it unique compared to those campgrounds around it.  I believe the fee is still 18.00/night.  Vaulted toilets are limited but there is 1 there.  Running Taylor rivers are a walk across the street and the reservoir is about 7 minutes up the county road.    Loved this place!  It does not offer firewood for sale but it does allow fires in firepit.  Idk why it crossed out fires.
