Nice escape... Tough on the trailer

Springer Gulch is a beautiful primitive campground in easy driving distance from Eleven Mile state park. If you don't want to drive to the lake, there are plenty of spots along the river you can set up and tube/float along.

The campground was quite and filled with families, so no issues there. Campground host does come around with firewood if you need any. Campsites are clean and well-kept.

There were, however, a few drawbacks to this Campground if you are pulling a trailer. First off the road in is completely washboard so if you're pulling a trailer it'll take you twice as long to get to your site.

Additionally the loop in the campground is very tight so again if you are pulling a trailer you need to know which site you were in before going into the loop as to make sure you are going the correct way when you back up into your site. It not a one-way Loop, therefore pulling in with a trailer will be counterintuitive if you go the wrong way.

Much of the road was washed out with large ditches so we were having to be extremely cautious to make sure we didn't bottom out.

Once we got in to the campground with the trailer, parked and set up, we had a wonderful time. Plenty of shade and trees.

The Campground has pit toilets and pump water.
