Beautiful and Private but close to Winter Park

Went up for a day to try out my new Roof Top Tent. Took a while to find a spot as it was Saturday afternoon but after driving up and up and up I found a beautiful private spot.

Great little spot

We camped here 4th of July Weekend 2022 and loved it. There were plenty of spots available, despite getting there around 2:00 on a Saturday, and the creek next to the site was a nice touch.

It’s also not far from the town of Winter Park which proved helpful when we needed to pick up some last minute supplies.
