From Blue River, travel 4 miles east on Hwy 126 to Aufderheide Drive (FS road 19). Proceed on Aufderheide Drive for 15 miles.
Great campsite for large groups. 2 Bucks are on site for bathroom usage, kept as clean as you can get from a Bucks in the middle of a warm summer.
There is no water at the site and the river is too far away, and somewhat difficult to get down to, to rely on bucketing water from it. Also, it's super cold, I wouldn't plan on swimming at the site, but the water warms once it gets to Cougar.
Fire wood is supposed to be for sale at French Pete, but they were unfortunately sold out. Water is also supposed to be available at French Pete, but we were told it was coming out red/rusty, so we left it alone. Definitely bring any and all water you might need for drinking, cooking, cleaning, and anything else you need it for.
Mosquitoes weren't bad when we were there in late August, but I spoke with another person who rented in in July and they said the Mosquitoes were swarming, so it sounds heavily dependent on the season.
Overall, fantastic site, the camp host was great, and we look forward to coming back next year!
