Peaceful

This is the place to go if you really want to camp without the modern convenience of water and electricity. Which in my mind is perfect because it's usually just one maybe 2 people if that

Out there campgrounds

This campground is small with no water or electric hookups. Water is available but not in campground. Most of the sites are small and not very level. There are only 2 sites that a small camper could use. Must of the trails must be shared with the horse riders. The horse campgrounds are pretty nice.

Very primitive

The park is very primitive with no electricity. There is running water but you have to walk quite a ways to get to it if you arent camping by it. There are no shower houses and the bathrooms are just a glorified porta potty. Aside from lacking amenities it is a very quiet and pretty place to camp.
