Relaxed Free Dispersed Camping

Right at the intersection of Potomac Road and Chicken Coop road in the Finger Lakes National Forest. If heading North on Potomac Road, turn left at the intersection and you’ll find a parking lot. Into the woods around the Lake you’ll find free dispersed camping.

My mom and I stayed just in the parking lot and had no issues and weren’t bothered. NO AMENITIES
