Off-season atv/hunting season it is quiet. But expect traffic at night coming into the lot to do a U turn or sit and hang out?? But the worst part is as it's right there feet off the parking lot for the trail riders to use, they expect full use of your site regardless if you are there. I came back to find a family using my site while some gear of mine was still there. Yes, I was checking out that day(3pm), but it was 9:30am. They didn't care to leave once I got there and continued as they were considering me the issue.

This campsite is at one of the State Forest designated ATV riding trailheads. If you were looking for peace and solitude I would not recommend this Campsite, especially on the weekends.

Decent campsite until 20 people showed up with a box truck and rode quads around the parking lot all night. They left a mountain of trash also.
