Great little, secluded campground. Took our 25ft RV there and the last 3 miles on the unpaved road was really bumpy. Don’t recommend if you have a bigger vehicle. Campground is designed for those with OHVs since there’s not a lot of shade or hiking trails. But we had fun exploring the creek behind the campground and being away from highways.

It used to be Digger Pine Campground, but the name was changed to Gray Pine, then Little Stony. Not a whole lot of shade here. Picture on FS's 2017 motor vehicle map of Stonyford area shows trees here.

Great place to camp. No hook ups. Had access to OH V trails, but it was one HUGE hill climb, fun but i would camp closer to more trail options. The scenery was not as much forest as brush land.
