"Good free boondock"
Pros: free, tons of space, any vehicle can navigate, less mosquitoes near the water.
Cons: no services, highway noise, ATV noise, water is very silted (even wondered if my dog should be drinking it).
Good for an overnight and right off the...

"Had all we needed"
The previous review says it all so I'll just add a few things they didn't.
There are basic bathrooms but no showers.
There is a place to pay I believe it's on the honor system so please pay.
Very level and right off the highway. There's even...

"Well spaced. A little anal on the patrolling. "
Nice campground with well spaced spots. In our area there were very few level spots for an RV. #104 is by far the flattest, most private, spot.
No dog this, no dog that signs everywhere and the camp hosts came by many times to make sure we were...

"Close to I-80, very wooded, access can be tough"
Campground was closed when we arrived but we parked at the gate and stretched out legs walking through. Lots of trees so nearly every spot has privacy. Only a few level spots in the campground so if you have an RV better get lucky or have...

"Good for a free overnight"
Got a flat spot up high overlooking the lake so a nice view. No services and nothing to do other than relax or fish. If you have a boat you could go on the lake. There is some trash around so we’ll and try to pick that up in our spot....

"Free lot with lots of grass, water and picnic tables"
Fantastic place to stop and spend a night or two. No hookups. There was hardly anybody here while I was so we had a place pretty much to ourselves. Didn't see any dog on leash signs so my pup was free to roam also. Apparently there is great...

"Good if not full with permanent campers."
All three sites were taken by obviously permanent campers. Men came back wearing orange work vests so apparently workers have discovered they can stay in a spot for $15 that has water sewage and RV hook ups. Picnic tables barbecue grills and...

"Great for no hookups"
Very nice campground with well spaced out sites. Fire pits, charcoal grills and picnic tables for each spot. Most all of them are pull through but only about 30 feet max. We’ll off the beaten path so very quiet when we were here. We noticed there...

"Better than perfect for us. "
National forest Land spot. Free for up to 3 nights. Room for 2-3 campers or tents. Could get up to a mid size Arab but no hookups. Next to a creek for the kids and dogs to jump in and fire rings and picnic tables. I loved this place and would...
