Latest Check-Ins
Nothing stating that the area is closed but the pit toilets are locked and the place is certainly not being maintained. Stayed here 2 nights without issue. Kind of close to the road and there’s a kennel up the road so some noise from the dogs barking in the evening but they settled down shortly after dark.
Report Check-Injust as described. nice free place for the night with 4 designated spots. no one else here on a Sunday in February and not the best cell service
Report Check-InBasic NF campground. Light road noise overnight and morning, dogs barking in the distance. . Restrooms still closed since 3/2020. I feel the campground hasn’t been maintained in some time. Strict alcohol restrictions posted due to dry county. Short walk to white sandy landing. No trash, no water, 1-2 bars of Verizon.
Report Check-InStoped by to stay the night- bathrooms closed. No overnight stays. Still closed because of COVID- permitted for day use only. Does not look like it’s well maintained at all.
Report Check-InClosed for COVID :( Looks like it would be a nice stay. A short walk down a steep slope behind site 1 takes you to a river bend. Sites are rather close to one another so I’d probably only plan on coming during the week and only for a night or two. No service from T-Mobile for miles. I was there long enough to set up my shower tent and bathe. Maybe 5 cars passed and a school bus used the loop as a turn around point. The town nearby has that real authentic backwoods vibe: No food, no grocery, and no gas. A town so small the speed limit is set to 20 mph so you don’t miss anything. Mind yourself on the road. Local PD eyeballed me hard and followed for about 5 miles out of town. I reckon it was the out of state tags because my van is no speed demon.
