Convenient

Close to Montrose. Lots of space not totally flat. Decently clean pit toilet. Can tell the locals use it a lot for OHV, dog walking etc. some use at night. No place to pay.

Quiet during my stay

I was hesitant staying here because it was during memorial day weekend and I figured it would be very packed but when I arrive Thursday evening, there were only two other campers there. By the end of the night, I believe they were total of five of us. Great phone service and super close to town. The vault toilets were clean but other than that, no amenities. It’s not much of a destination camping spot but does well for another two. The sites are side-by-side Pullins which I believe they were about 10, maybe 15 of them. Could be very loud when there are multiple campers.
