Good for an overnight

We were able to overnight in the parking lot next to the lake which was nice. There were no “rules” so generators were running all night which was a bummer.

Wonderful sunsets

More of a tent area. Nicely mowed entrance and the campsites looked great. The grasslands are well defined by the mowing. Looks great. Campsites are just short distance from the main road. There is a pit toilet (bring your own TP), water, trash, covered picnic table, fire ring. There is a nice small lake so be ready to put the yaks in the water. Beautiful mature trees with long, low branches just make for climbing but I thought I was a bit old for that. Verizon is pretty good.

Great FREE van camping!

The parking lot is large, and the pit toilets here are actually really nice, as far as pit toilets go. It is February, so I can't comment on how they will be in the summer. We were the only ones here all night, again, being winter probably contributed to that. The lake is pretty, and we heard some coyotes or wolves howling at some point during the night. Other than that, very quiet and a great place to stay overnight!

Secluded & quiet

We stopped by on a weekday. Sights were off to the side from a communal parking lot. Trash & recycling collection. Some trash in the fire pits. It is a ways from gas so make sure you fill up before heading out
