Customer Reviews
Very loooong drive to get to. 20+mile trails to hike not much to see on them also riddled with mosquitoes. Very cute campsite over grown with poison oak and infested with bats that swoop down at you. Designated firepits a plus with trees close enough to hang hammock.
If you want a very out of the way and off the beaten path kind of camping then this is the place for you. There is only 7-8 sights, but when we where there several spots overgrown, and with fallen trees in them. A chainsaw and weed whacked would do wonders. There is two outhouses, but no TP so bring some of your own.
Overgrown road and 4x4 required. difficult to get to, not recommended
Very remote, but we loved the privacy.
Very long drive to get up here, it's very deep in the mountains. Wouldn't suggest a car that isn't four wheeler. If you go, make sure your directions are detailed it's easy to get lost and there isn't any signal. Besides that, the place is nice if you're very adventureous and you're not afraid to hike off trail
