Amazing place with tons of very primitive spots and privacy. Directions on website are pretty accurate.

Once you turn onto Switzer Lake Rd from U.S. 33 and find the parking area to the lake on your left, be prepared to drive another 2ish miles on a single lane and very bumpy dirt road. Go slow as several sharp corners with huge drops and inexperienced drives coming towards you.

Down the road you will find many spots on your left and your right to tuck back in and call it "home" for a couple days.

If you travel back to U.S. 33 and drive 9.1 miles West you will find the Brandywine General Store on your left. They have kiln dried firewood, ice, bait, and supplies you may have forgot at home.

This first come first served location is ideal for off road adventures. Make sure your rig is equipped, this ain't for rookies!

Would have given this spot a 5 Star if some of the locals understood quiet hours after 10pm and slept past 5am. Be advised, it can get loud at some of the larger sites. Go deeper into the woods if you have the equipment.
