Old Boy Scout Campsite
This was used and built by Boy Scouts ages ago. It’s still exist, however the river changed course and is further away than it once was. There is a bike trail that had a fork in the road that leads right to it someone could walk, hike, canoe or kayak to access this campground. I haven’t camped here since the 90’s, but have visited it in the last 5 years via bike, walking, and kayak. It’s free to stay here, and doesn’t seem like people really camp here anymore. Has a pit toilet, picnic tables, and a fire ring. Ideal for tent camping via bike, kayak or canoe.

Crater Island
Great place for camping via Boat
Big parties in the cove. No bathrooms no showers, just sand and water. Very busy on weekends in the summer, as long as there is no dredging operations going on, otherwise it’s closed. If it is closed, there are plenty of islands and beaches near by to set up for camping.

Richard J Dorer Memorial State Forest Reno Unit Dispersed Camping
Beautiful hikes overlooking the driftless and Mississippi
This is an awesome place to hike, not a very long hike but it’s steep with drop offs. Not for those that are scared of heights.
This is a hike in camping spot, camp spots are not well marked I stayed in the old rock Cory when I camped here, years ago.
