Wilcox Lake Wild Forest manages Fox Lair Campsites, a free, drive-in or walk-in area along Route 8 in the Adirondacks near campsites near Bakers Mills. Sites vary considerably in quality: some sit close to road noise, others occupy higher ground with open sightlines toward surrounding hills. Access roads are narrow, muddy when wet, and best handled by vehicles with good clearance. No trailers. Cell service has been reported at at least one site, and a pit toilet sits between adjacent campsites. Cod Pond Dispersed Pull-Off is another option nearby for campers wanting a different configuration.
