Weekend Trip to Star Gaze campground

I was able to locate the place easily with my GPS, there is an address posted at the site and the directions provided were clear. I was met upon arrival and offered my choice of locations. I was able to stay right next to the river, there were chairs and benches available along with a very large fire pit. It was quiet and I was able to enjoy sitting by the river. There were some very good suggestions of places to go check out near by, which I did, and they were great.

1 night at The Nerd Farm

The land is very primitive, isolated, and quiet. We got to see the Milky Way at night. The host was friendly and was easy to get in touch with. He came down, greeted us, and made sure we were all set for the night. We chose a gravel spot and slept to the sounds of the river. There were a lot of mosquitos, just a fair warning. Also, There were no fire rings or designated areas to sleep, but there were lots of good spots along the way. We dug our own hole for a fire and made the most of this experience. Overall, very beautiful land to camp on if you’re willing to trek a little bit out of the way for it.
