Ain’t no water in SWEETWATER unless you bring your own. Toilets are vault toilets so remember to close the lid when you’re don’t to stop flies and funk. Apply for a permit if you wanna have a fire when you’re actually allowed to have a fire. Just make sure you apply before you leave cell service as it’s quite a drive to get reception.

Pretty well kept place. The camp sites are pretty large, each with a picnic table which is covered. Easy to get to, no big vehicles needed. Can get to this place in a sedan. There is a vault toilet available which was pretty clean for a vault toilet. The sites are spaced out so you are not too close to each other. It is a first come first served location. But for FREE it is worth the drive.... Pretty well kept place. The camp sites are pretty large, each with a picnic table which is covered. Easy to get to, no big vehicles needed.

This is a good little spot.

The drive to get to the campground is long and winding but the road is paved although a little rough. We got there around 1:30pm on a Friday in June and we had the whole place to ourselves! From what I could tell, there’s about 8 spots. After the sun went down around 8pm there were 3 others who showed up. Like another reviewer said, I felt lucky to get a spot, this is such a great campground. Abso... The drive to get to the campground is long and winding but the road is paved although a little rough.

Absolutely no cell service so don’t expect to get work done. Did not use the toilets so I can’t comment, but they are there.

Probably the prettiest free campground I've ever been too. They have pit toilets in a really nice building. They have lots of campsites but there was only one other person there when I rolled in late. Close to pinnacles np. They have a donation location so I donated cause it was so nice. Each spot has room for at least two or three cars, a picnic table and a shelter and a fire ring. I wouldn't sta... Probably the prettiest free campground I've ever been too.

I wouldn't start a fire here cause I literally drove through a wildfire on my way like 50 miles away and there were so many trucks and planes trying to put it out.
