Great little historical place!

This campground wasn’t open yet when I went to check it out, but it’s a cute little historical site off of FS Road 37. I almost missed the turn because it’s not super well marked, but you’ll see the sign for the forest service road and there’s a little bridge across the river. It’s a super minimal campground for tents only!
