Very nice, clean and well taken care of campground. The sites have been updated with wood sides and filled with gravel. They are near flat with only minor leveling. The restrooms were clean and well maintained. There is water at the campground in the form of a hand pump. We filled a 20 gallon cooler with 2 of us turning the handle for about 10 minutes. Ditch Creek follows the west side of the... Very nice, clean and well taken care of campground. The sites have been updated with wood sides and filled with gravel.

We filled a 20 gallon cooler with 2 of us turning the handle for about 10 minutes. Ditch Creek follows the west side of the area and is a very nice little creek with brook trout swimming around. The area is right in the middle of hundreds of miles of ATV trails. Some of them are 64" trails. I would visit again.

A great place to escape! No cell service and little amenities. Just an outhouse area, so be warned! But easy access to some of the most beautiful views in the area, including some caves! You are also probably 30min from town , so not too far if you need to go and get some groceries. Definitely a place for hiking or ATV-ing!

Quiet, clean, well ordered campground. Excellent camping experience. No cell service to speak of! Cleanest vault potty facilities I've ever seen. Good times.

Rode SxS out of this trailhead. Campground was clean and orderly. The campground host was kind of grumpy.

We loved this quiet, out of the way campground. The only thing that could be better is better access to fresh water- the pump was OK, but hard to get to especially with a vehicle. But the camping spots were leveled and spacious. We will return, I'm sure.
