“Avoid holiday weekends ”

Reviewed 5/17/2023

Nightly rate: FREE!
Days stayed: 3
Overall Rating

The campground is well maintained, and the road in is good but very narrow. During the week, it is quiet and calm, but on the weekends, it is very noisy with loud music and 4-wheelers running night and day. Holiday weekends are packed, and unless you are there by Friday, you will not likely get in. Unless it is rainy season, it is very dusty. Not all sites can accommodate larger rigs, but there are several where you can put them, and several sites are great for more than one rig. There are at least three vault toilets throughout the campground, fire pits at each spot, but you are not likely to get cell service. No hookups.

“Large dispersed area with vault toilets and fire rings”

Reviewed 12/28/2022

Nightly rate: FREE!
Days stayed: 0
Site Number: 0
Overall Rating

This is a well maintained semi-desiginated dispersed camping area under large pines. The sites are very large and spaced nicely. There is no underbrush so they are not private.

Each site has a metal fire ring and easy access to 3 vault toilets. The main road is hard packed but side areas can become a bit muddy.

There is access to the Continental Divide Trail and miles of forest roads doe hiking.

The area isn't the best for solar or Starlink due to the tree height.

There is no cell coverage in the area.
