Absolutely love this place. Plenty to see and numerous camp sites. Not many people and no cell service. A great place to get away from it all

Such an awesome little spot, right outside of Corona. Not too many camping spots unfortunately, but you don't have to worry about too many people being there. Amazing scenery and hiking/4x4ing. Drive up the road to the top of the mountain. A lot of cattle and other wildlife in these mountains. Great camping spots. Very nice and easy drive to the campsite.

Great little free campground, I visited in August and there was one other person here. The sites have nice deep fire pits that had built in grates to cook on and grates to keep the wood off the ground so you could make a fire even if the bottom of the pit was wet. I know it's typically used by hunters in the fall but it was a nice stop for me along my road trip to Austin.

The roads are so well maintained. The views are amazing and the campground is nice, quiet, secluded and with beautiful trees all around.
