Nice remote campground. It's a 30 minute or more drive from any type of civilization so be prepared. The roads up here are good gravel roads. The campsites are pretty basic, I recommend the walk in tent sites 35-40 for optimum forest feel. Zero cell service.

This is a super quiet camp ground. There are so many trees and shady camping spots. The bathrooms are super clean. There is water supply which you need to boil but no showers. The best of all is the location and a small lake, hiking trails. We loved the most of it the peacefulness of the place.

9/16/22-9/18 Had site 20. It was fantastic! Bathrooms were clean with plenty of hand san/TP, and close to sites. While driving we saw a medium size black bear crossing the gravel road about 8 miles from camp. My first sighting!

One of the best campgrounds I've ever had the pleasure of staying at. We rolled up late without reservations to find we had to pay for a spot, which was a first for us. Only paid $16 for a drive up campground overnight for 2 people. Not bad. We got to hang out with and meet the campground manager. The dude used to play guitar for Willie Nelson so needless to say he was super chill. He told us the grounds weren't packed that night but that the next weekend it was booked up, so it's worth reserving your spot during leaf viewing season. They've got great campfire pits made for cooking, which was perfect for us. The bathrooms were the cleanest I've ever seen, had full rolls of TP, and actually smelled good. No running water of course. Highlight is the reflection on the lake, especially on a clear night. Star gazing is a must. I highly recommend this campground if you're staying in the Spruce Knob / Seneca Rocks area
