"It’s a gravel road right off I-80; farmland surrounded the camping spot and it was pretty private. No facilities so be prepared to pack out what you pack in."
"Highway noise might be an issue, but the privacy, birdsong, and pond make up for it."
"No facilities. Flat, established, wide dirt road. Multiple pull offs for camping, mostly flat. Cross a bridge to get there - dual axel limit 10 Tons. Trailer limit 23 Tons."
"This is a general parking area for folks that want to fish, or use the beautiful, paved and lit hiking trail. However, it is close to I-80, so traffic noise is bad at night."
"Nice place spot for two weeks close to highway but overall not bad spot"

TravelerGood for pulling off into while on a road trip. There's a road sign that marks it (not in the exact spot shown on map here). No facilities but less than 10 miles from the next rest stop. No one here on a busy travel Saturday when the rest stops were busy.
ScoutStopped here to sleep for the night on a cross-country road trip. It’s a gravel road right off I-80; farmland surrounded the camping spot and it was pretty private. No facilities so be prepared to pack out what you pack in.
TravelerGot here at night, turned into Chloe's circle, it was a short gravel road. There were two spots to park and a cul-de-sac at the end of the road. One of the spots was slanted and the other spot was flat, neither were good for large campers. You could park in the cul-de-sac but it is a smaller circle. The slanted spot was occupied, there was a truck hanging out in the cul-de-sac, so I car camped in the last open spot. There's a decent amount of road noise from the interstate.
When I woke up in the morning it was pouring rain, so i did not explore, but I did not see any toilets, picnic tables, or fire rings in the parking area, there was a boat launching spot and a small trail to lead to the lake. There is a gas station up the road.
TravelerThis is NOT for rigs over 15’ long. Turn around potential is tight. Lots of beer cans around. Got down there and turned around and went back to 80. Just a little too creepy.
TravelerIt is what it is you need it and just pull offs but they're right next to the highway so hopefully traffic doesn't bother you
ScoutMy husband and I had a freaky experience here and I wouldn’t want it to happen to anyone else. Around 4:30 AM a car pulled in quietly and parked right next to our van (even though there were other camping spots available). The only reason we woke up was because our dog started barking and freaking out. A guy was outside smoking and putting some things in a bag. We started up the RV and dipped as fast as we could. It’s a shame because it was a nice, convenient, peaceful spot otherwise. Be careful!
GuideWoke up with tent covered in pill bugs and some ticks... It is also right next to the highway so it is kind of noisy. Kind of dirty with some trash, broken glass, and ammo because it's a hunting and
TravelerNice place spot for two weeks close to highway but overall not bad spot
