The road into the Brush Creek area campsites is a two lane gravel base road that is treated for dust. It was well maintained and not washboard. It has gentle slopes and is busy during the hiking and biking season. There are multiple trailheads in the area. You will see bikes along the length of the road, and tons of prairie dogs as well. There is a working cattle ranch on the road so be aware that road blockages by trailers can occur.

It is recommend that all vehicles greater than 35-40 ft. do not attempt to drive beyond Tent City: Approx 6 miles from Hwy 135. Avoid Strand Hill Road and West Brush Creek Road, as they are very rough and require high-clearance 4×4 vehicles.

The sites in Tent City are too close to each other, in my opinion, for a camping area. I would stay here if everything else in the area was full.

This is a back-in site usable for any size rig. It is in full sun with a few nearby aspen trees. The river is just below this site. It's neighbors are far away for the area making it and site 10 the most private in Tent City. It is not level.

There is no cellular coverage in the Brush Creek valley.
