Go to road 306 .5 miles away and there's much better free dispersed camping. Came here specificity bcs they advertised water and I needed to fill my tanks. Stayed 2 nights ($48) and when I was leaving I went to top up my tanks. As soon as I hook up the hose this old man comes running up yelling at me that I need to stop. He then accused me of not staying there, so i proved I did THEN he changed his story and told me it's illegal to get water from there and it's a huge fine. I've searched - NOTHING matches what the old geezer said. His excuse "we have to pay for this water". Well old man, it's 2025 and water isn't free, but my 5 gallon tank isn't taking $48 worth. It's less expensive to buy gallon jugs and funnel into your tanks and stay at the dispersed area. Don't give these concessionaires your money. You get NOTHING additional there for your $24 nightly than you'll get next-door for free. .. unless you like being harassed. The campground is empty. 99% chance you'll get in without reservation, but what's the point. Had water and rude hosts not been included with my stay it may had been a decent usfs concessionaire site in the state - but after finding out that you don't get what you pay for, this should have been a normal $12 forestry site.

Nice small campground. No hookups. Plenty of faucets with drinking water. Immaculately maintained by camp host. Pads for tents or pops at each site in addition to pad with large table with BBQ extension and a fire pit with grill. A water jug at each fire pit to properly put out your evening fire. Only negative, can be a bit of highway noise heard, but you cannot see the highway. Cash or check only, if you don't book online. Wood bundles available from host, $10 each or $28 for 3.

Very clean! Not crowded, space between sites, bathrooms checked multiple times a day. Hiking trail right out of camp site.

We are having a great time here! Some traffic noise from the nearby highway 160, but all the sites look very good with easy access. Tim, the current host is awesome.

In the trees. Well marked tent sites. Able to see the stars at night. Quiet. Spot for tent is pebbles, so bring something to lay on. Potable water, firewood, and pit toilets.
