Great place to cut down a Christmas tree 🎄. Looks like nice, spacious camp sites with lots of trees, during the camping season. There were trailers parked in an area, that seemed basic, but electricity and an enclosed porta potty with a cement floor.

Very clean, plenty of openings when we arrived late on a Thursday night, and large places for all sizes of RVs. We rode in on motorcycles and slept in hammocks and there were plenty of good trees. Nice fire pit and table in each site. Electric hookups are available and you pay for them whether or not you use them so we charged our devices, which was nice. $20 /night

Elk River is a wonderful hidden destination. Great for all seasons, come prepared for winter though!
