Really secluded and primitive, a great place to get away!

Great place to hang out and think or throw up a hammock or tent for the night. Excellent, quiet location. 1 Bar Verizon... no actual connection.

Primitive Corps of Engineers campground with pit toilet and boat ramp. Deer and egrets besides good fishing. So much untapped potential!

After mismanaging our time and "accidently" ending up here late at night, we truly enjoyed our overnight stay. Its as basic and primitive as it gets so if your looking for extra this is not the place for you. However its beautiful and peaceful. We cooked dinner and breakfast on our grill, had plenty of local firewood to burn and a gentle breeze off the water all night long. We didn't have a boat but if you do and are looking for a cool place to motor around and fish this is it!! We actually left something in our car on overnight which killed the battery, and our jump pack failed, but John S and his grandfather saved the day. We met grandfather, his dog, and his daughter on an early morning walk, grandfather sent John back with cables to help us out. He spoke fondly of Gunnels and camping there as he grew up- I bet it was a blast! If we are ever in the area again we will most definitely be stopping back by.

Absolutely a great place to spend some quality time with your family. Not to mention it's free camping.
