This campground area located at the end of Forest Service Road 271. It has eight campsites with picnic tables, fire rings and lantern posts. Tent camping is available here. Individuals must utilize the adjacent parking area and walk into the camping units. The area is very primitive with no potable water or electricity. Kelly's Pond is a trailhead for the Sam Houston Multi-Use motorized trail.
From New Waverly follow FM 1375 West approximately 11 miles, turn south on FS Road 204 for 1 mile, and turn west on FS Road 271 for 1.5 miles.
Absolutely love this place. Just want here for the first time and it was awesome. Beautiful area. Have to get over the tons
of dirt bikes every morning, but they're good people
Free camping. Some people sleep along pull-offs on the way here. Slept here in the parking lot without issue.
There are sites for tents too but it was cold and rainy. I believe there is a toilet but I did not use it
Relaxing, quiet and peaceful. Plenty of separate locations along the road without being on top of each other. I did bring a quarter roll of toilet paper, they were down to the last few squares by early Saturday morning. Next time I will pack some raid for the lavatory.
Stayed here for a few days. Can’t complain too much for free camping but a water spigot and trash can would help out a lot! Tried to hike the trails with my girlfriend but the dirt bikes have beat them to hell so we ended up walking along the forest road. Peaceful at night.
