A great little campground. The campsites are large and private. The facilities are well kept. There is road noise at night until 10pm or so. Two short hikes to the falls. And it is very dark at night! There are many hiking trails along RBR Scenic Highway

Despot has beautiful waterfalls but is not well maintained. Bathrooms are the worst (so many issues from poor lighting to poor ventilation). The waterfalls have old dead trees that have not been cleared. Signage is good here but they should have the length of each hike on the initial board by parking. Parking should be $5 but there is almost no cell service, so unless you pre-pay via the Recreation App, it’s rough to pay. The parking via cash/envelope box is down and clearly has been for a while since the tape is worn off now (photo included). Details on the hike- going the left to the “lower falls” it’s actually a fairly strenuous hike straight up. But short. Going to the right is a longer 3/4 mile hike to the better and bigger waterfall and it mostly follows a stream and is a fairly flat/ easy walk. I’m included a photo of the parking lot that usually has enough parking. But it worth repeating that there is almost no cell coverage in this area at the bottom of blood Mountain.

A beautiful camping site. The only issue is it is very close to road. And that road is favorite of motorcycle riders because of its beautiful wavy path. Specifically on Sunday there are too much noisy riders Other than everything was great. The upper fall has a beautiful scene

DeSoto falls have 2 falls, upper falls and lower falls. Lower falls is about half mile walk and upper falls is 1.25 miles walk each way. I personally did not enjoy the falls since you cannot wet your feet or swim but the Trek was green and great. It's dense forest and you will see the running water throughout the Trek to the falls. There is a great picnic area with tables, plenty of camping grounds around. There is no network once you start walking towards falls. One time visit won't disappoint you. There is a restroom in the parking area but it was closed and I assume because it was off season May be.

This was a gorgeous, lush, green recreational area. That has a little parking lot you can park at by restrooms. Then, the trail to the falls has signs to easily follow. You walk past some of the camping areas. Then go over the bridge and river and can go one way to a shorter trail, to the lower falls one and the other one takes you 3/4 of a mile to the top falls. It was so nice up there. And at the top of the lower falls, they have a little bench to sit and view the waterfall for a little bit. This isn't like a perfectly straight level path, there will be some roots and some spots to go up hill some and some to eventually go down hill or step over some trees that may be fallen. But overall easy.
