Absolutely No

They must have just recently put up a sign that this is day use only. I personally don’t understand why because the road here is the worst road i’ve ever drove on to get to a campground.

This place is trashy and 100% disgusting, my opinion is, if they want to make this a day use area they have a lot of cleaning up to do and about $2mil in road repairs.

No, I would never come back here again. If i could rate it a ZERO i would.

Needs improvement

Upon entering this site I was very confused. It seemed as if a tornado had gone through and shredded up all the trees. Some roads were inaccessible due to large branches in the way and there was just shredded wood everywhere. You can see in the photos. There were also a couple abandoned homeless camps with lots of trash and old belongings. There were quite a few other people here, and there were plenty of spots which weren’t hard to find. Besides all the debris and abandoned camps, it was still nice and relatively clean and quiet. The roads to get to the park are quite rough and are a couple miles on gravel. Besides the mess and rough roads, this campsite is pretty nice. Free to stay, no permit or payment

Free and quiet

We have a 2WD promaster 159 extended, arrived around 1800 hours. I was a bit weary about the previous reviews of the road. The road is in decent shape and made it no problem, just rumbly. Their is a sharp uphill but I think even a 5th wheel can make it. We went right at the fork and found several pull offs with a few fire rings. I went further down and saw were it could get pretty rough on the road but I didn’t go down there. Our spot was secluded from the others. There is trash at some sights. Our spot was pretty level with no issues. Only issue was someone came in with a super loud vehicle around 2200 hours as if he was going mud riding in the back. That is probably why the roads are all rutted up. I did have cell phone signal 3 bars LTE AT&T
