One of my favorite campgrounds to go to. It’s not hard to get here. I’ve seen a Prius back here but I wouldn’t take a car with low clearance. You’ll be more comfortable in a 4 x 4. there’s about 12 to 15 campsites that you can find and most of them are next to a stream. Most of them are very well spaced apart from other campsites, but a few are next to each other. Definitely try this place out. In the warmer months it’s pretty much full on the weekends…. I’ve also been back here just for day hiking and mountain biking. You can also ride horses back here.
Fantastic place, great trails, 2wd is just fine, but definitely high clearance at least a 3 in lift. Great camping areas through out, however it’s a little sketchy at night, so therefore I would bring something to protect yourself with. Other than that a lot of great areas to camp, if you didn’t want to go jones creek, winding stair works just fine for camping.
No restroom, no drink water, just only Nature.
If you enjoy with Firefly, Crawfish here would be a good place.
Beautiful, multiple campsites, very secluded from business and residential areas. 4 wheel drive or all wheel drive recommended especially after rain or ice. Multiple large group sites located on creek and a couple of smaller ones. 4 wheel drive required to reach a couple of sites. Moderate traffic. Beautiful view driving in, be cautious while driving, no guard rails and many motorcycless and bicycles. Hard to get a campsite on the weekends and even weeknights during summer. Be prepared for 3 creek crossings. No service at campsites but you can get service at top of hill by guard rail. Not much wood around campsites. Be careful. Swift moving water. DEEP in some places, slippery rocks. And be cautious of snakes. Go slow driving in, there are a couple unexpected large potholes and bumps.
Very rustic, and perfect location to the Bull and Jake mountain mtb trails, also Springer Mountain. Creek is clean and provides excellent water for filtering. Kudos to the Forest Service for giving us this pristine camp!
