Great for a one nighter

Beautiful old abandoned campground! There are cows and unfortunately the water near by has some issues with it. However this area is beautiful and I always look forward to camping here

Early Season Overnight

Spent a quick afternoon through morning at the site. We were able to find a pretty clear spot with a fire pit to set up, but most of the old sites are grown over and too cramped for tent camping. The vault toilets are still there, so if you bring your own TP and hand sanitizer, it can be pretty nice. There was hardly any traffic—just a couple ATVs and trucks in the early evening. The area is pretty wooded, but plenty of clear skies due to the wildfire from a couple years ago. The lake is a short walk away, but probably not safe to swim due to what looks like high amounts of HCB. Same goes for fishing. There are fish present, but they’re pretty skittish and probably not super safe to eat. Still, very beautiful area with a good level of seclusion.

Peaceful and not very crowded when i went

Very peaceful campground, right by a lake with a nice view. People came and went throughout the day to go fishing at the lake and some with ATVs. 

During the night there was only one other group of campers but its a fairly large campground with plenty of spots so they were far away. The total amount of offroading is ~3 miles as most of the drive is paved road. The dirt road is well taken care of and almost any car could make it. This area seemed to be part of a wildfire as there are many trees cut down that have scorch marks. The lake is relatively small but theres another body of water just across the far end. I didnt venture over there but youre able to see it across the lake.
