Summary
There's no potable water, and no electric or sewer hookups, but RVs can access the area. Reservations aren’t required—first-come, first-served—and there are no camping fees. Nestled in a quiet, grassy, tree-lined area near a small lake, the campground provides a peaceful, no-frills experience ideal for tent and small RV campers. It’s near trails and fishing spots, with open skies perfect for stargazing. Spring through fall is the best time to visit for mild weather and full access. It’s a hidden gem for minimalist, tranquil camping.

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.
