Check-Ins

It was a good place to get a night's rest. Quiet, felt safe, good Verizon signal.

As previously described: fantastic campsite and sparkling clean. We spent 12 days here. The campsite and the driveway from Inhassoro are also suitable for BigRig (we are 3.8m high). The first km is paved, then a sandy driveway, but doable without any problems.

$1 per 2 mins— quarters only. one women’s shower available, it was pretty clean and the water was nice and hot!

small parking lot, beautiful view of a farm, and a magical sunset.

Labor day weekend was packed full!!! We went down the right road and also checked out other campsites before this one but they were alll taken by 3pm.

Warning the road on the right gets pretty bad the deeper you go in, we almost got stuck in our 2wd promaster. Came back to this trailhead lot and stayed here, had decent pit toilets and 4-5 other rvs & cars staying overnight.

Smyrna Rest Area, separate parking for trucks and cars, lots of room, clean restrooms

Good rest stop! Parked on the gravel next to I80 so we could run our generator without disturbing everyone else. Stayed for about 18 hours. It is not a busy rest stop at all, which was nice.

Great rest stop! Lots of water available. No rest stop eastbound for 114miles!

Sign for overnight parking is down. I had a day before my camping at Acadia NP started and the long history of Castine compelled me to visit.

Parking lot was 50% full in mid-morning, 100% full in early afternoon and empty except for 5-6 cars at 11p

When I saw this sign (attached) was down I opted to spend the night and depart -7a.

So for now, it’s available. I picked up trash, micro-trash and recyclables and deposited them in appropriate container.

It’s a beautiful and fascinating spot!!

Quiet neighborhood, stayed here for 2 nights, was perfectly fine!

we enjoyed our stay here. the pools are nice for a chilly dip. the wifi is back up and running, but the restaurant is still closed on week days. owner was super friendly. dog friendly.

Modern looking gas station (Samarkand Texno Gaz Oil) where they sold diesel. At first they told us they did not have any, but when we asked again we got a full tank.

Besutiful brandnew campsite in the middle of nowhere. Good place to be. No running drinking water, but bottles are there. Warm shower, toilets and great kitchen area. perfect spot to spent the night.

Pulled into this parking/observation area. Within a short period of time had several cars pull in and out staying for brief periods of time and leave. Lots of traffic noise and a busy intersection with traffic lights and a large street light shining into the lot added to the discomfort - left for a different location

Police knocked at 1:30 AM saying there is no overnight parking as all parks close at midnight. Please do not stay here as they have told this to multiple people who have used Overlander!

Very nice rest area with lots of trees. Well maintained facilities. We’ve stayed her often when cruising around Michigan in our Pacific camper-van.

Large Rocks have been placed at the entrance to keep people out. This place is permanently ClOSED.

STOP letting your dogs poop all over the place...
this place is a decent stop for a night. but unfortunately dog poop, Mosquitos, and constant flow of traffic added by the train every 30 min is kinda a bummer.

I agree with everything that has been written so far.
Definitely a really nice place and super nice people.
I recommend!

Made a pullout on side of road immediately after an old wood fence. See picture. Enough room for another car to pass if needed. Although we did not see another car. Great view of mountains and cascade river in the valley. You can just hear the roar of the river. Road is unpaved with some potholes but totally doable in my 2WD Sprinter.

Nice little campground 23$ or 25$ beside the creek.

Peter is nice person!!! we come with a problem on our brakes he check and finally say no problem, he dont want money for our 30 min check!!

Simple wild camping, dirt shoulder off the road. Very quite, no other campers around.

Beautiful spot! Room for several rigs or tents. Creek is accessible but very cold and not deep enough to swim. Only a few minutes off the main road and fairly level! No cell service

24 hour Walmart. Other campers in the far parking lot. I stayed closer to the JC Penny. There was a security car going around but didn’t bother me.

Really quiet place!! Except for a modified muffler in the middle of the night

Well lit. Lots of trucks coming in and out at all hours, so watch out for the noise

This is the town's school. The wind outside is so strong I ask for a place to camp and they offer me a salon. Really nice people. Nobody marked this route before is georgeous land, but really hard conditions.

Although some of the camp sites power facilities are damaged many sites are serviceable. All have water and basins. Baboons and hyena are a problem so dustbin are raided daily. There is not much shade and the camp is a bit rough round the edges. Ablution better than some of those in the Kruger.

R55 entry fee pp and as South African s we paid R200 per night for two of us to camp. Similar big five game viewing as in the Kruger.
