Hawk Recreation Area Campground
Reviewed Jun. 20, 2021

Beautiful but crowded

We arrived on a Friday to find that almost all of the campsites were full, though some campers had not registered. If you go— REGISTER. It takes all of two minutes and helps arriving campers figure out if there’s actually space.

It looked like a relatively nice site, except that the sites were fairly close. My camping companion and I opted to find dispersed camping along the road— equally beautiful setting, but much less on top of others. There are some spots along the road leading up to the campsite and more as you continue past it. You’ll find spaces with fire pits and at least some room to pull off the road.

Be forewarned that the road is quite bumpy. I was fine in a small car with relatively low clearance, but if you have extremely low clearance or things hanging down from your car, you’re gonna have a slow, difficult drive in.

Lots of fun plants, animals, and insects around if you also enjoy Seek. We spotted a ghost pipe among other fun things!
