We arrived after dark. The road in was partially flooded from recent rains, but it was passable. The dispersed camping area consists of an area of low fenced level grass cable of parking 2 to 3 cars or trucks and dirt paths that lead to primitive tent camping areas. There was a truck and trailer in the "parking area" and they were camping down one of the paths. They may have been "living there" so we chose to park near the boat ramp and set up our roof top tent. It was quiet and we slept well.
Given it is a bit of a journey to get to these sites, be prepared to be flexible if there are "residents" camping in the main area.

Quiet camping area. Nice paved narrow road to site. Would not recommend for big rigs. We camped in a pickup bed camper. Could probably accommodate 4 rvs if they are small.

Came into the primitive camping area for the night. Luckily, no one was in the first pull off area as we are 43' and dont maneuver easily. It was quiey and nice change of scenery from trucking pull-offs, but for a one night stop over, it was alot. It was hard to get turned around while leaving before the sun came out and we hit a few branches on the way out. If we were staying longer it would have prob been a better scenario. Also hard to get the rig onto an even surface. Zero to no cell service.

Just a mile further down the road from the regular campground is this awesome free dispersed camping. It starts at the boat launch but continues down the dirt road further into the woods.

Awesome campsite, hidden beaches along hiking trails, very quiet. People were kayaking down the river. Would definitely stay here again.

A little busy on weekends, but nothing crazy. We really enjoyed our time. And, we have a 40-foot RV and made it in and out, no problem.
