Bretz Mill Camp

The road to get to campsite can get rough. It’s a good 8 mile dirt road . Some parts are collapse. And others parts get muddy so make sure you got a good car. At campsites vault toilets are dirty AF ! Lots of mosquitoes 🦟 around . No cell phone service . Lots a of trees so plenty of shade .

Don't Trash A Nice Campground

The Campground was nice. We found a good shady spot, near the creek, and close to the bathrooms. The camping trip was very enjoyable. The only issues were the "meat bees" and the large amount of trash left by several camping groups that left after our first night. We collected 3 large garbage bags of trash.
