Looks nice but NOT for big RVs

I usually only stay at the places identified as "Big Rig Friendly" but I gave this location a shot since a review said there were buses that found a spot... we tried it in our 40ft Class A and got pretty jammed up down a narrow road, trying to follow the directions in the comment. Disconnected the toad and ran around trying to find anything that would work but there was nothing for our size. I do not recommend trying if you're in a large Class A.

Several spots, paved road

The road keeps going and there are many pull offs and forks. Right on the other side of the national park road. Found a spot right by the river.

Several large spaces

Traveled up the service road until I found a large 3 way fork in the road. To the immediate right there was a rough uphill road, no good for a trailer. Straight was a nice road with a few spots if you’re in a single car or tent. 1/4 mile up, take a right and there is a massive gravel open area where 2 people were parked with bus sized rigs. I didn’t check out the fork to the left. But there is a large campsite hard left of this intersection that I stayed in. Nice atv trails with more tent sites down in the trees.

Easy spot for a large rig or a big group.

This area is down a paved fire road. The campsite is a couple miles down and directly before the road splits into two. You'll see a fire safety sign. Very quiet night, only had two vehicles pass by the entire time I was there.

There is one area that is a large flat clearing with gravel and a firepit, and would be great if you have a big group, as it could accommodate a lot of campers. I didn't park there because there was some large puddles and mud at the entrance and I didn't want to get stuck. You could probably manage without 4x4 (I recently got stuck a month ago, and didnt want to risk it). I parked just outside the camp area on the pavement, this area would be great for an RV or Trailer because it's paved and has a fire ring. You could also go back into the woods for tent camping. I followed a few trails and saw some spots, but some of the areas were drowned or muddy.

No services. Pack in, pack out. Verizon service was slow.
