DO NOT STAY HERE-UNSAFE
This is a beautiful campground BUT at dark we were surrounded by IMMENSE drug trafficking activity. We left IMMEDIATELY after someone drove INTO our campsite clearly drugged out, speaking nonsense. 911 was unable to help (very spotty service and disinterested dispatcher). We thought we found an amazing place but we will never put ourselves in this harrowing situation again.
Out of the way
Primitive campground. Lots of stars! No facilities other than a port-a-John. Could use a trash can but otherwise good. I was the only one there. My only complaint was around 2200 when someone, probably a local, drove in and started a fire while listening to country music on their car stereo. Close to a hunting area and there was a firearm discharge around 2300. After that the car went away and it was quiet. Not really near anything so I didn’t stay a second night. Had AT&T cell signal.
Peaceful
Very peaceful website. No shade and campsites are close but the setup is great.
