Nice creek

Nice creek, accessible sites *road has some pot holes, but you can get there by car. 

There seems to be only 4 official sites here and the are trying to restore the area near the creek. There is room for more than 4 RV or small vans or tents though. 

There is another site up the street if this one is full, we did not go see that one.

Crowded

It has no reviews so I was hoping it wasn’t well known, but it was full of RVs. I ended up continuing on to what I guess is “Upper Cherry Creek” area on this app, and found a nice private site with 1-2 bars service for Verizon, but the road up here was quite eroded and rocky. It’s a nice site though.
