This is a nice little campground we found sort of by accident (came across it while looking for dispersed camping on forest service land). 

It’s normally $18/night, but it’s free when the water is shut off. The campground closes for the season around the end of October. Hosts are on site. There are vault toilets and large dumpsters, but no recycling bins. 

Each site has a picnic table and fire pit and a bear box (this is bear country, pack your food away!). Sites have different layouts, so there’s something for everyone, from tents to large rigs. 

The all stays app said that this campground has a 21 ft limit for vehicles but I’m not sure why, as there were many sites where we could have easily fit in our 26ft class c. 

No privacy between sites, and no shade, just open high desert landscaping. Hwy 9 is right across the water and you definitely hear road noise, but it’s far away enough to eventually become background noise. 

Zero cell service for Verizon. The cell booster helped a bit, but not much. ATT had one bar of LTE without the booster, but it’s not a usable signal.
