Artesian well

Cute campground with an artesian well. The toilet is clean.

Late Fall Getaway

Amazing little spot. Campground has only a handful of sites. Makes for a very secluded trip. Clean pit toilet. Easy access to trails and area lakes. Could canoe the river if you want. Very quiet.

Small and empty but everyone showed up for the artesian well

The campsites are not the best we’ve seen. There are plenty of tall trees and yet the sites had plenty of sun. This wasn’t what we were looking for on this warm July weekend. In fact the campground was entirely empty so maybe others agree (There is another campground just down the road that we liked much more).

The best feature is the artesian well right at the entrance. We filled up with water and the line started just as we finished. Even if you camp elsewhere the water is worth a visit.
