We'll be back...

Just what we were looking for! I don't want these people to get bad reviews so pay attention! No bathrooms No 'improved' camp sites. No water source No picnic tables No firepits If you're expecting a Forest Service campground, this isn't it! Like I said. we'll be back! We loved the solitude. No playgrounds

No "sites" just marshy meadow

We couldn't have asked for a more private setting. The ONLY ones there. Property owners did not meet and greet as listing states. They DID offer their spot at the end of the road, which was kind, but managed to find ONE place level and dry enough to park. Unfortunately, it was near the round pen and there was a deer carcass approximately 40 ft from our camper. We saw ONE firepit and we did get the OK to move it but just left it where it was. No tables. Plenty of cow pies. It is a MEADOW as stated and everything was very marshy. We were concerned about rutting the land up. This place IS beautiful, and has a lot of potential, if it is indeed going to be an area with 20 RV "sites". Literally nothing indicates a "site". We typically dry camps for weeks at a time out in the middle of nowhere so to pay for what we got was pretty disappointing.
