Free - far off main highway.

Given four stars cause at least it was free. I was actually the only camper there on a Monday night. It’s cool by the river if you like fishing. Bugs of course. Seems like a lot of locals would just drive down there and back. I did see some kids swimming right before I left.There’s a nice pavilion if you’re with the group. I only complain is it’s further off the main highway than I would’ve anticipated. But that’s on me!

Nice free camp

Street lights, and some grill I place. At end of the road.

Awesome remote campsite

We camped here over thanksgiving weekend and were the only ones camping. A few people here and there to visit during the day/evenining but we were the only ones overnight. Very remote and quiet. As others have said, no water or bathrooms. We did have two trucks come unload their loud boats at the ramp around 3:30-4am which was annoying but that’s the risk you take.

Great spot right on the water

Very nice spot. No toilets or drinking water available. There is a trash barrel by the picnic pavilion, but I think the expectation is to pack out trash. You just can’t beat the location though. Right on the water with a great view.

Great Campsite

Great place to camp for a night or multiple nights! It is free and there are already some fire pits set up. It's close by the river so it has the potential to flood and cops come by to check up on the spot occasionally.

Boat ramp/ small campground

No limit posted anywhere and it's free. Local police do patrol area often. In heavy rain it's floods bad and the campsites next to the river do go under water. Big picnic area and boat ramp. There are about 5 campsites. When I arrived I was the only person here but it's flooded now. After I got here another camper arrived. If the area wasn't flooded another 2 or 3 people could fit fine. Circle in circle out. Trash cans. No showers or water besides water from the river. There are protected fish in the river so can't harvest everything. I enjoyed watching and listening to the hawks and crows. At dusk watched the bats fly over head. And at night cracked the windows to hear the crickets and frogs.. 3bars for metro PCs phone and simple mobile hotspot. Was able to watch Hulu on our laptop without lagging
