Remote campsite no wifi

The road to get to 16 springs is not paved all the way and it can be narrow at certain points. Our Minnie Winnie handles turns very well and it had no problems getting there. The road is bumpy and can be rough at some points. Once you get there, the views are wonderful. The owners are helpful and drive around to check on you. There is a wide open space to walk around but no wi fi unless you drive into town. If you are planning to disconnect, this is the perfect place. We have camped there twice and had a great experience.

Sights for days

This RV campsite is absolutely phenomenal! The views are absolutely priceless we stayed in spots 5 and 7 and wow! We saw elk every morning and evening you can hear them through the night and the stars were brighter than I've ever seen. The owner of the camp site would drive by 4 or 5 times a day checking if we needed anything. We are definitely going back!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤

Absolutely amazing spot!

We stayed here for 5 days. Our view was absolutely amazing you can't ask for a better one. The couple that run it were great as well they made sure we got settled in and they drove by 4 or 5 times a day just to make sure we didn't need anything. The area was quiet tons of deer and elk came in daily. We will definitely stay here in the future!
