Overall Rating

At the entrance is a sign that says $5 parking with two roads, one to the left and one to the right. We scouted the road to the right down to the river bar. After a few manageable potholes and a few overgrown bushes this road lead out to a large camping area along the clear river.

Apparently this is a boat launch but it is not marked, I think you make your own launch site. There is an outhouse even. Some road noise but quiet at night.

The road to the left had very big potholes out to a separate river bar with lots of space. A high clearance vehicle would be needed. There was an outhouse here as well.
