Summary
A free permit may be required through the De Soto National Forest. Amenities are minimal: no toilets, water, fire rings, or picnic tables. RV access is possible via gravel roads, but there are no hookups. Campers enjoy a secluded riverside setting with lush forest scenery, ideal for paddling, fishing, and birdwatching. The nearby Black Creek Trail, a National Scenic Trail, offers excellent hiking. Best visited in spring or fall for mild weather and fewer bugs. Expect a quiet, back-to-nature experience with little infrastructure.

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.
