Gum Springs Recreation Area — Kisatchie National Forest

Highly recommend at $10/night. Only two of us on a Thursday night

Nice views of the little lake, sites are spread out. 2 spigots for water and one vault toilet. Be careful of the locals, they let there dogs run wild and don’t clean up after them.

Spacious site, shaded, water nearby

We absolutely loved this campground! It was quiet and felt very secluded. There is a nice hiking trail around the forest. Lots of cool construction around the area from the 1930’s. Stairs that come from all areas leading down to the little lake by the campground. Several little gazebos are around the lake, too.

There is a vault toilet and one spot for potable water, which is located at one of the campsites by the toilets. Each campsite has a picnic table, fire ring and a lantern pole.

Located inside Kisatchie National Forest, Winn district. We were not alone here, but felt very secluded. This campground has sites with picnic tables, lantern posts, and fire rings. The grounds are hilly and has great small trails throughout. The gum springs body of water has large trees across small parts of water allowing the boys to test their balance skills. They had so much fun running up and down the hills and through the trees. We really liked this place. There are bathrooms on one side of the loop.

The Winn Ranger Station is next to campground.
