Mind blowing place, we were in Camp 3, and it’s amazingly peaceful space for a gathering. The roads are graveled miles long, and We enjoyed a walk from camp 3 to beautiful dam. Parked anywhere in the forest and felt pretty safe with a big group.

Nice spot for camping right between laurel run rd and pine grove mills. You can get a free permit by just calling and reserving the dates. There was a firepit and a picnic bench. Running sources of water all over. We could hear the stream from the campsite. If you are hunting, go a little deeper in past the cabins. The mountain directly on this camp is tough hiking. Lots of thorns and rocks. I really enjoyed my trip and will go back with my kids when the weather is warmer.
