Nice area!

Very solid location, there are several spots along the Highway. There are multiple camp sites within each pull off, but they are close together so not a whole lot of privacy. Right next to a river which is pretty and convenient. There are toilets right there but they close in the colder seasons so be aware they might not be open. There are trails to hike down but we didn’t really explore too much. Looks like more campsites further down. You have to leave your car up by the road though.

Beautiful, easily accessible spot

This Highway area offers a number of camping spots. While next to the Highway, the highway sounds are mostly drowned out due to the beautiful sounds of the river flowing. The spot was clean and easy to get to in the truck out for most standard vehicles. The dogs had a great time but In the fall and winter pack as warm as possible.

Awesome dispersersed campsights along the River

Probably about 15 or so dispersed spots along HWY 150, on the river, in the trees, with one really nice beach spot. One out-house bathroom. We pulled our 19’ RV with solar right up to the river and our dog was in and out of the river all day. The state seems to have a litter problem in general, so prepare to pickup some trash to make your campsite home. Lots of hiking trails.
