Gorgeous gem not found on maps.

We were on our way to Grave Springs campground from Buffalo when we rounded a corner and came across the sign for Middle Fork campground. Not expecting much, we pulled in to take a peak. Boy were we wrong, no sooner did we get out of the car did we fall in love with the oasis after miles and miles of sagebrush. Withe three little spots, a well maintained bathroom and NO FEE! All they adk is that you sign into the comments box (date, zipcode, how long you stayed and comments). This place was amazing! Unfortunately our fishing poles were out of commision but many pervious goers had said they were there for the fish and I could see why. Someone had a sense of humor by putting a Handicapped picnic table at the bottom of a steap climb. But boy was it gorgeous, right next to the creek. Flowers and butterflies galore. But unfortunately also bugs, so bring a citronella candle. And also a hammock because you won't want to leave.
