This free Forest Service campground sits within forested terrain in Apalachicola National Forest, accessible by drive-in access for basic camping. The US Forest Service manages the site, which operates without reservation requirements or fees. Limited data exists about specific facilities or site configurations, though the forested setting provides natural screening between camping areas. Campers planning extended stays in the region can explore campgrounds around Apalachicola National Forest for additional options. The nearby Otter NF Hunt Camp provides an alternative just northeast of this location.
