“Favorite Campsite!!”

We were in one of the pullouts on this road by the creek and it was BEAUTIFUL!! Not buggy, great sounds of the running water, had a nice campfire, and very easy access in our van. Nice tent spot especially with the soft sand, but this was not really an RV spot. Go up the road about half a mile to the Marble Mountain Sno-Park and there was plenty of RV parking there! There was a few cars that drove by at night (no later than 11pm) and in the morning (no earlier than 6am), but the noise did not bother us because the water sounds were louder. We have been traveling in our van around the country for a month and this is our favorite spot so far!

Excellent spots for boondocking. We had a space all to ourselves. Many pull outs all along the road. We are in a 30ft class A plus a tow. No problems finding a suitable site. Some noise from road.
