Pay sites and free dispersed area both

The 6 miles between where the pavement ends and when you reach the main paid camping area is so washboarded, I thought I was going to lose my mind. But we and our 26ft class c survived with no broken bits.

The main camping area is nice, but pricey in my opinion at $18/night. Each spot is along the water and comes with a nice flat pad to park on, fire pit, picnic table, and shade structure. There are pit toilets as well. No other amenities. We chose to keep going, mainly because $18 felt like too much money. The road is not so washboarded when you leave the campground, and we did ok driving around the lake for about a mile until we found one of the free dispersed sites. No amenities here, of course, other than some home made rock fire pits. Each spot is really private and segregated from the next spot.

The lake was nice and cool and refreshing to swim in when we arrived on a hot July day. No cell service here. The ATT phone had a bit of service, and with the cell booster was even able to stream. The Verizon phone had nothing. Lots of mosquitoes here, swarms of them at dusk when you’re trying to enjoy the beautiful sunset.

Basic campsite near a Reservoir

The place is basically flatish land near the willow creek reservoir. The place has pretty normally smelling out houses and is also rv accessible. Next to your campsite will be an awesome reservoir, great for fishing and hunting down crawdads.
