ScoutOpen field, clean vault toilets, not much shade
If you’re a solar person, this is your spot! It’s a giant open field with vault toilets. It says horse camp, but anyone can stay here. If you’re looking for shade or here in the summer months, you may try elsewhere as there is not much shade to be had.
ScoutFree w Easy parking but no water
Quiet with sparse campers. People who were there were nice and we felt safe. Free. Easy to find but slow going w rig on winding narrow roads. No water hook ups had to drive to Hardin 3 miles over and pay $5 for their shower and water for our horses
ScoutGood plan B campsite
Our original campsite wasn’t what we thought it would be so we found this place and it’s a very good and safe secondary campground. It’s very open, can park anywhere and pitch tents or RV’s wherever you’d like. 2 trail heads, one on each end that connect to all other trails of 15+ miles if wanted.
Very quiet, open, and spaced out and it has restrooms. I would recommend bringing a fire pit though otherwise you have to use designated fire areas.
