Well what can I say that already hasn't been said about the campground. It is reasonably priced, off grid camping, back in the woods and very relaxing. The camp host Steve, makes sure everyone is safe and cared for. Its like family.

GPS will want you to take the right fork off of chalk creek rd. Don't, take the left one as if you were going to St Elmo. The right fork is pretty messy and you will get stuck if you don't have enough ground clearance. Great little Campground near St. Elmo. There are 15 sites to choose from. We stayed in #15, which according to the camp host, is the most popular spot. It looked like it. The site... GPS will want you to take the right fork off of chalk creek rd. Don't, take the left one as if you were going to St Elmo. The right fork is pretty messy and you will get stuck if you don't have enough ground clearance. Great little Campground near St. Elmo. There are 15 sites to choose from. We stayed in #15, which according to the camp host, is the most popular spot. It looked like it. The site had white rocks arranged in lots of neat patterns; circles, lines, and trail markers. This site is also across the road from the Iron City Cemetery. Go check it out when you stay. The sites are one both sides of the road so you will get road noise from the off road vehicles that like to play in the area. There is only one toilet and it's near the camp host. It's a bit of a walk from either entrance, but it's very clean and not stinky.

Only campground by St. Elmo where you can legally drive your ORV to the numerous trails. 15 first come, first serve sites. Big beautiful sites with the sounds of Chalk creek throughout the campground. Best for tents or small RV's. Trailer and extra vehicle parking at the entrance. 30 minutes back to the highway if you strike out on a spot. Most folks stay multi days.

Nice campground pretty quiet. One thing though there were a lot of mosquitoes so bring the bug spray, very nice scenery. Also there is a small grave yard on the east side of the campground pretty unique.
