Many open spots. Beautiful and quiet. Our GPS put us on a dirt road for a few miles - however it was well maintained and not too rutted. Large camping spot with fire ring. Clean area. Definitely a gem in the trees.
The road here is a little rutted out and has a couple of potholes, but nothing crazy.
This is our second time this year staying here and in the winter it’s definitely a different galaxy all together than the spring.
Not as many bugs but it’s still warm and temps reached the mid 80’s.
We have seen a lot of snakes and it rains a lot. Some bees but not a serious nuisance. So just be aware when walking on the trails. Lots of deer and bobcats.
Absolutely no highway noise and the bathrooms are always stocked and cleaned.
No water or trash pickup.
When we arrived on this visit the campsite at the end (the roundabout) had been stripped of its fire pit and the HUGE logs we used to sit on. So we had to pick up trash and rebuild the pit.
Some people on the weekends rode their dirt bikes and OHV’s. That wasn’t too bad, not too obnoxious.
Plenty to explore so plan on visiting here for more than just a night.
Clean pit toilets. Extremely quiet, great dark sky opportunities. Mostly used as a hunter’s camp. Direct access to the overlook and the sandstone trail.
A true jem. Quiet, isolated but yet easily accessible. We found at least three sites that could accommodate our 26' class C. Two to three bars of Verizon 4g, fast service. 14day stay limit and FREE!
My wife and I stayed one night, it was very nice and peaceful. We found it very easy, and was definitely in the woods. We were the only people there, it was a Sunday and we were disperse tent camping. Once it got dark, a few vehicles passed thru but did not stop. The wooden area was very shady too! We really enjoyed it!
This was particularly nice as I was the only person at the site when I visited. It is free for camping use, though there is a fee for things like ATV’s. There’s an ATV trail nearby which I did some hiking on, and in general it was a nice and fairly secluded area, with your standard National Forest toilets, but no other facilities.
National red dirt wildlife management preserve inside Kisatchie National Forest. This campground is located along the sandstone trail system. Free camping, no water, flush toilets. The road was ROUGH but the nature and secluded area was beautiful. The trails are the main attraction, miles of hiking, biking, off road vehicle, and horse trails. From the scenic overlook, you can see for miles.
