On my way East from Colorado a friend told me to take a stop at this beach if possible. So happy I did!! It was $8 in the ranger box, no staff on site. A cop drove through once. I don’t have 4x4 but there were spots I could still safely pull up to and feel right on the beach under the big trees. Some campers with 4x4 drove and camped right up on the water!! Really awesome sunset colors and very pleasant. One dude with a giant fifth wheel ran his super loud generator all night, despite multiple other respectful campers 🙄 will never understand that type of person but alas... other than him it was amazing. Will always stop on my way through NE!
