It features vault toilets, picnic tables, fire rings, and grills, but no drinking water or hookups—RVs are allowed, though without amenities. Set in a scenic high alpine meadow surrounded by forests and mountain views, it offers a quiet, rustic experience ideal for groups. Nearby trails like Lamoille Canyon and Island Lake provide excellent hiking. Late spring through early fall is best for visits, with cooler temps and vibrant wildflowers. A permit is needed; check with the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest for current info.
