Small camping area

Access is easy. There are 4-5 improved campsites with vault toilets. Lots of UTV traffic when I was there which made it dusty. Most sites were on or very near the river. It’s a long way back there and if it’s full you don’t have many other options. That’s why 3 stars.
Ok for small campers but I wouldn’t take anything too big as the spaces are small and it is very tight to maneuver. Also there is a mix of public and private land along this road so be sure where exactly you are.
