Guide
first time doing any type of dispersed camping but it was really easy to find, just off the road in the woods, just follow the coordinates and its a lil past, look for the signs, with lil sites to pull my car up to deeper in the woods, though you can still see the headlights coming from the road.
I'm not a hunter but no one else was there and I pulled up at 10pm and left 6am on the first day of open season.
TravelerRight off the road, easy access and perfect sites for 1 car and a tent. Only open during hunting seasons though.
TravelerWorks perfectly, especially in a pinch.
ScoutThis is a small road and if you had a camper of any size it would take you a while to turn around. Very few places. Like someone said earlier this is a place to pitch a tent or to Car Camp.
TravelerVery easy to get too, right off interstate. very primitive but you have a decent signal if you need to park and get work done. Great spot to sleep if you are passing through!
ScoutOnly open Sept 1 to Feb 28th and March 31 to May 14
TravelerVery primitive, but close to town if you need anything. Sites are very close together, no privacy. Most campers are here to hunt so are gone most of the day. It was not crowded when I was there during the week. I was only there on a Tuesday.
RangerYou have a fire ring and a line to hang things from thats about it here, really nice place to camp if youre comfortable not having a toilet. Saw one other person here come in with a 30 foot trailer, didnt think he would fit but found a spot just fine. And the best part is its FREE CAMPING!!
