No water. No power. Bring your own tp and washing up supplies or santitizer. The toilets need to be neutralized WAY more often, but it's a very nice secluded quiet place to be in the forest and still see stars.

This place was nice and quiet with big shade trees. It only had one vault toilet for 21 sites and it became unusable by the end of the stay.

No host, no firewood for sale, no running water. The group sites also aren’t the most ideal for a large group of people that it’s supposed to fit. Lots of roots in the ground and hilly areas making it difficult to find a tent pad. It was nice and secluded though so our group made the best of it!

Do you love camping in a rubbish heap? This is the place for you! All kinds of plastic and cans are on display. But the really unique item is the cigarette butts. This camp ground could be the highest concentration of cigarette butts within 250 miles. That being said, it's very dark and quiet. No road noise at night.

This is a beautiful place to capture fall colors. The campground essentially is empty after September so visiting at this time of the year is a wonderful private adventure. The maples interspersed with the pine trees, give a wonderful blush of color and the peaceful nature of the forest, calms the soul.
