Saulsbury Bridge Recreation Area, managed by the Muscatine County Conservation Board, includes this walk-in primitive tent camp set within bottomland woodlands along a waterway. Sites are spread out with few tables and fire rings, and parking sits within 100 yards, so campers pack gear in and out on foot. Water, showers, and firewood are available at the Saulsbury Bridge Recreation Area - Main Camping area nearby. At $10 a night with pets allowed, the site works well for anglers and paddlers who want direct water access without a developed campground setup.
