Absolutely amazing!

I Love Rock Creek Campground. I choose a very specific campsite if I can because of a secret trail that leads me down to the creek to a swimming hole and a cave that Jesse James himself used to hide in. Have always had an amazing time here and look forward to my next trip to Sulphur.
