Customer Reviews
This is a wonderful place for dispersed camping. There are 40 spots along Redskin Creek Rd that are signed and first come, first serve. We got there on a Saturday morning at around 9am and there were 3 or 4 of them still available. We got site 26. Each site is very large, unique, and there is plenty of forest between you and the next group. Ours had an upper parking / fire pit area and a huge area towards the back into the woods for as many tents as you'd like. There is parking for 2 or 3 cars depending on site and a fire pit at each one. It was a very nice setup.
Camped here on a couple different trip and have always enjoyed it, first come first serve but have always found a spot. Seen homeless here once but never after that. Overall I really prefer Buffalo Creek to other dispersed locations nearby.
The area was very nice and got to see Smoky Bear.
Nice little getaway for dispersed camping!
