A dirt road winds past farmland to reach this dispersed camping area along the Eleven Point River in Mark Twain National Forest. Campers find a handful of primitive sites with vault toilets and fire rings, some positioned directly on the riverbank with crystal clear, cool water access. The Forest Service maintains this remote spot where reviewers report seeing few other campers during weekend stays.
Sites lack picnic tables but offer heavily shaded areas under the forest canopy. A boat ramp serves occasional day users, though the location remains largely private. The clear night skies provide good stargazing opportunities from the river's edge, and the area connects to nearby floating routes and springs for places to camp around Mark Twain National Forest.
