Very woodsy like in peaceful one with nature as one would say
This is a decent campground offering a couple spots very close to the creek. There are also trail heads very close by. The surrounding areas are gorgeous. Also, a pit latrine is available as well.
This camp site is pretty awesome but cars in the Honda Civic / Toyota Corolla category WILL have a little trouble getting all the way to the campsite. There is a very long well kept gravel road that will take you to about .8 miles from the campsite cluster. After that there is a pretty difficult and narrow offshoot that lifted vehicles of some type will have a much easier time with.
Besides the journey there there are 3 sites here. Plenty of room for multiple vehicles per site. There is a creek that runs through the site which is nice for ambient sound but can make for some chilly nights. Lots of nice hiking trails in the area. BIG hunting spot so do be careful and wear vibrant colors so an accident doesn't happen. Fire pits are provided.
