Free spot to camp, and ruts described by others weren't too bad when we visited in early June. But mosquitoes ate us alive within minutes. Would recommend applying insect repellent before stepping out of vehicle.
A free place to sleep where rangers won't pound on your door in the middle of the night and tell you to move. A handful of sites. It's right next to the highway, though it is a lightly traveled highway, especially at night, so not a whole lot of road noise. True, there are beautiful ponderosa and sagebrush surrounds, but no place to hike. No pit toilet. The lone table has been greatly abused. Bench parts missing. Useless for anything but standing and cooking at a Coleman. There are two fire pits on the site. As noted in other reviews, the road is deeply rutted. There are only a few level places to park, but I managed to get my Sprinter to a decent place by making use of the edges of ruts. Summary. If you're looking for a free, hassle-free place to sleep close to Susanville, this works.
Great campground off of the road. Road is a little washed out but there's a big area to the left that was flat. We were able to fit our camper here. Would definitely return.
Great spot. We got in with a 44’ 5th wheel, but my husband is a magician at parking with this monster. Trees, low branches, eroded dirt road not for the faint of heart. Table still broken- we had our own. We picked up some old trash laying around.
A small BLM campground with plenty of shade from the ponderosas and easily accessible from Susanville. 15 min drive from main city. Theres many deep ruts as you enter so be mindful where you drive, also a single broken picnic table
