Tranquil Off Season

This place is great. Came in off season in March, not expecting much. Many camps closed for season. It was beautiful, quiet, with running water and bbq pit at sites and hot showers in the bathroom. Perfect for a short stop over on x-country trip or offseason enclosed camping.

Bear Creek fishing

This is a state-run campground aimed at fishing and wildlife (hunting) but within the state park. There are bathrooms and water but not much else. We were fishing Grayson Lake mostly and staying here. Pros: FREE, super simple, golf nearby, nice lake/creek to explore by boat. Cons: open campground is not private and there’s no shade, maybe too simple for some, middle of nowhere (BYO supplies).
