Accessible via a long forest road through dense woods, this primitive dispersed camping area sits at the end of Forest Road 16 in the Angelina National Forest. Campers must continue straight past private property markers and Rockwall Baptist Church to reach the main camping area, which offers ample space for setup on the left side of the road split. The site provides no amenities—no tables, fire rings, or facilities—so visitors need to bring water purification equipment and portable sanitation.
The Neches River flows nearby, offering swimming opportunities during warmer months. Cell service reaches the area, and the remote location typically sees light use. For those wanting developed facilities, Boykin Springs NF Campground provides tables and restrooms just a few miles northeast.
