Great spot

Down a hard packed gravel road. A few potholes but nothing major. Nice spot in the trees. There are a few fire pits spread out. We were the only ones here.

Sexton Pond.

If looking to be near a campground but still out on your own then this is the place. I got lucky enough had the place to myself for almost 2 weeks, give or take the few groups that tried to tough the biting fish. I will share a tip. They seem to sit dormant at 10pm and 3am for a hour each. No biting. Please clean behind as you found it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there any camping facilities or amenities available at Sexton Pond?

Sexton Pond Dispersed offers minimal facilities typical of a dispersed camping area. You'll find several established fire pits scattered throughout the area, but no developed amenities like restrooms, potable water, or trash service. The sites are situated among trees, providing natural shade and privacy. This is a primitive camping experience where you'll need to bring everything you need and pack out all waste. Come prepared with your own water, sanitation solutions, and camping supplies.

When is the best time to camp at Sexton Pond?

The best time to camp at Sexton Pond appears to be during the warmer months when weather conditions are favorable for both camping and fishing. The area can be quite peaceful, with some visitors enjoying extended stays of up to two weeks with minimal interruption from other campers. Weekdays likely offer more solitude than weekends. For the most secluded experience, aim for off-peak times when fewer fishing enthusiasts are visiting the pond. Check weather forecasts before your trip, as conditions on the gravel access road could vary seasonally.

Where is Sexton Pond located and how do I access it for camping?

Sexton Pond Dispersed is accessible via a hard-packed gravel road. The road is generally in good condition with just a few potholes that shouldn't pose problems for most vehicles. The campground offers a secluded setting that provides the feeling of being out on your own while still being relatively close to more developed camping areas. The dispersed sites are spread out, giving campers privacy and a true nature experience.

What fishing opportunities are available at Sexton Pond?

Sexton Pond offers fishing opportunities that attract anglers to the area. The fish can be challenging to catch at times, with periods of activity and dormancy throughout the day. For the best fishing experience, try casting your line around 10pm and 3am when the fish appear to be less active for about an hour each time - this could present a better opportunity for catches. The pond seems to draw visitors specifically for fishing, though patience may be required.
