Big Rock

Rough gravel road to get to the spots & there are only 5 of them . 2 are on the river & looked pretty decent with some shade. The other 2 sit back further from the river but are a quick walk over to the waters edge . These spots looked shady too & tucked away. The only other spot is right as you pull into the area & doesn’t really even look like a spot . It was the only 1 open & we had to get out to double check that it was even a spot at all. Unfortunately it was absolutely filthy with trash & covered in dog feces . I get that it’s a free area but we’ve used a lot of free dispersed camping & fishing access spots over the past 2 weeks & they were all treated with the utmost respect. I’m sad that this place looked like it it. Not cool. We hightailed it outta there & stayed in the Walmart parking lot since nothing was available nearby.

We LOVED it here. This is primitive. Not water or hook ups or trash but there is a pit toilet. Right by a beautiful stretch of the river, perfect for spending the day lounging in the water, swimming, fishing etc. There are prob 5 sites here and it was BUSY mid week in August when we were here. Lots of folks fishing/here for the day and all sites full for overnight. Some sites have picnic tables and all have rock fire rings. Really, so lovely and relaxing. Would def stay again and again if we are in the are. Best of all…it’s free!! Pack in/pack out. Be respectful of others. Keep your dogs on a leash and pick up after your self. Keep this place as lovely as we found it!!

Stayed during a cross country trip.  Awesome location, 10 minutes from the expressway and on the river.  About a half dozen sites with a pit toilet that was stocked and clean.  My site was perfect for a tent, my dog and I enjoyed a peaceful night.  Will certainly stay here again when traveling through the area.
