Smiths Creek Recreational Area

It was extremely cold when I stayed, so I didn't explore much but it was well taken care of from what I saw. Nice grassy areas for tents.

Great for a day stop and stayed the night in my campervan. Was quiet with little traffic. There were a lot of flies.

It was not far off the highway but no road noise. Great place for a free overnight camp.

There are trash cans and a water spigot at this free campground. It's nice and large where you can park a 40-foot RV if you'd like, even longer. And the state is 14 days.

No gray water dump site. Use Love's instead. The dirt road coming in is a bit slippery when wet. We slid all over the road, but there's no potholes.

Not far from the highway but not too loud. Lots of picnic tables and fire pits, space for tents next to the lake and below the dam (walk over the knoll behind the playground). Clean pit toilet and water pump. Woke up to cheery birdsong.

Great hidden gem in between beautiful farms. Plenty of space to park with on site bathroom

We stopped here on our way west on I-80. There was no one here when we arrived around 4:30 PM. Our 30-foot Class A with a towed car fit easily, but I'm glad we got the first spot. A few people came and went to fish or play at the park, and we shared the parking lot with a fifth wheel at night. Overall, a quiet place to park for the night.

Great site! Big campsites on a small lake, nice and quiet but only 20 min off the hwy. Good latrines, potable water, and trash bins.

Very easy to find, free and simple. Pull up, park, sleep, enjoy lake in the morning!

About 3 turns off the highway via dirt road. Very pretty, clean toilets, potable water, has picnic tables and grills. Definitely staying again on my way back east
