Simple, but peaceful

This little campground was a simple, but peaceful place to call home for a weekend. It was quiet and well kept. No on site camp host or potable water. It did have vault toilets though. Seemed to be a popular place for fisherman in a beautiful meadow with a small river running through it. The water was ice cold, so we didn’t swim. The camp spot we stayed in was HUGE! It was also a good distance from the others, which allowed plenty of privacy from other campers. We tent camped, so I’m unsure of hook ups, but I don’t believe there were any. Pretty basic campground.

sheep bridge

nice campground with plenty of space between sites. But very bad road to get there. I wouldn't bring a trailer down that road. Although some people do. Bring your own water. Very pretty. Your close to South Twin resort in case you forgot something. Banks are a little to steep for my liking.
