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.

This is a great smaller campground just off the main road. The sites are large and spaced well apart. There is some road noise, so if you can pick a site further in. The host is super involved, and has this campground spotless, including the pit toilets. The indivdual sites are well maintained and clean.

Stayed here over Memorial Day weekend. The campground was slightly bustling, but luckily nobody was being obnoxious during our stay. Overall, everything was nice and peaceful. The campsites all seem different in configuration, and ours had a wooden tent platform with rings on the side to tie down and/or guy out your tent. Being in the trees though, the wind was never really much of a problem. The camp host, Tim, was extremely friendly and diligent — he could be seen making the rounds and cleaning up frequently. As such, the vault toilets were always clean. Though it's located pretty close to the highway and you can sometimes hear the road noise, it's also a very convenient location (we dipped into Durango each day). We mostly stayed here because of that convenience, and because other campgrounds were booked up, but we wouldn't mind staying again.

Great campground that has large level spots and gorgeous views. Right off the highway with easy trail access and pit toilets. Our spot #10 had a brand new fire ring with grill plate and a large tent spot. The host was excellent selling firewood at his site.

Great campground, I was impressed enough to leave a review. The parking spots are gravel but graded and neat. The tent pads are wide and smooth. The vault toilets were cleaned daily by the friendly campground host. Definitely worth a visit. Attached photos of my site and one nearby.
