It's a long way to the auto parts store...but otherwise it is a nice spot. Well spaced large campsites, some with corrals for your horses. Wooded hilly, out door showers, indoor toilets..if we get back this way we will definitely stay again... $7.00 per night...half off with Passport America, America the Beautiful etc.. $3.50 a night is very affordable!!
NO DUMP STATION BUT does have Drinking water.
Awesome trail ride this morning. Love the winding trails & the ups & downs. Amazing how it has changed tho. Never had the pipes in the ground for the water to run through when I would go many years ago. Can't wait to go back & ride through again!!!
