Favorite spot to camp since a child

There is only 5 or 6 spots available for first come first serve camping. They have a couple closer to water but most are more remote. There is a 3 mile long dirt road to travel on. There is one large set of falls towards beginning of dirtroad with a porta potty at parking area. Most day users here. The further up you go, you have many spots to pull off to access the creek and a couple of trails to other set of falls. Very popular place in summer time. It was over full last time I was there summer of 2024.
