This place is awesome! I pulled up on Wednesday morning with plenty of spots open. The ranger came up and gave me free permit when I got here. You can choose how long you want to stay, which is great. The lake is beautiful as well. Highly recommend! two bars of AT&T service at my campsite.

I was a great spot with enough room for my dog to play ball until bed time. We were far away enough from the other sites that we didn’t bother anyone but not so far as to feel unsafe in case of an emergency.

Stayed here one night on my way to Pittsburg. Trash at one site, but I chose a sight by the lake (look for the yellow tent symbol on the trees for where you can stay) that was gorgeous, quiet, and relaxing. I was the only one here so far as I could tell and heard no one else. A nice little escape in the woods!

Lovely place to stay in the forest with a little lake and active wildlife! There is a shooting range nearby but the noise wasn’t prevalent enough to bother me. The road in is gravel and offshoots to sites are dirt which can get muddy in the rain, but I saw many small vehicles come through successfully.

We were looking for a quick nights stay after our trip home from the Carolinas. This place fit the bill! We unfortunately came in after 9:00PM which made it very difficult to find a sight while not being familiar with anything. We attempted an area that had a camping sign and found it to be occupied. The 2 approved sights that we found have extra long driveway / approaches to the tent spot. Excellent seclusion!
There is sine litter around but not terrible. We were able to remove most of what we found.
There are no facilities here. Bathrooms or garbage.
