East Tower Hunt Camp operates as dispersed camping within Osceola National Forest, offering multiple separate areas where campers can spread out across the boundary without designated sites or reservations. The US Forest Service maintains this no-frills facility with basic amenities including trash service and vault toilets, while allowing campfires, pets, and alcohol.
Access works for both drive-in and walk-in camping, with big rigs able to navigate the area. Cell service does not reach this location, though Dollar General sits about 15 minutes away for supplies. The camp features a climbable tower for those interested in the elevated perspective. Campers seeking more structured options can find places to camp around Sanderson or check out 17 Mile Hunt Camp for another dispersed forest experience.
Description
Primitive camping year-round, available only to hunters during general gun season in the fall.
