Quiet

We camped here back in April 2022. The road is fine for a big rig, might be some sandy spots so be careful.

We plan on returning to this entire area, this forest is LOADED with free spots. Some you can stay in up to 30 days and there are ones like this one that are 14 days.

This campground does not permit OHV’s, so it’s a little more on the quiet side.

I wish i could have taken more pictures, but I’ll update when we return.

Bathroom: yes

Water: No… but, there is a natural spring that the locals use that’s not too far from this camp.

Trash: No, but when we went there was a trash can in the bathroom.

Showers: No, you could find a nice sunny spot to put a solar heated camper shower tho.

This entire forest is a 5 star in my opinion. Very clean and quiet. Out of the way of all civilization.
