Summary
There are 11 first-come, first-served sites (no reservations) with picnic tables, fire rings, and pit toilets; no water or hookups, so bring your own. RVs are allowed, but the narrow, rough access road limits large rigs. Fees are typically around $10/night. The area is scenic and quiet, ideal for wildlife viewing, fishing, and hiking—especially the Freeman Reservoir Trail. Best visited June–September when roads are open and conditions are favorable. A tranquil, off-grid experience for those seeking solitude and nature.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
