1 Star is not low enough. I was told this was a nice place. Camp had bathrooms that were filled with flys, ticks and spiders. I ended up relieving myself outside for the weekend. The site we ended up camping in was riddled with used needles and bent spoons. I didn’t realize this was a refuge for the areas crack addicts. The river looked nice but the amount of human waste and refuge floating towards the ocean made fishing difficult. One thing is for sure if you brave this camp bring bear mace and a sidearm. If you didn’t know the local ranger station is the most remotely located troop in the entire US. So if you have an issue with the locals just a heads up that you can’t rely on the government staff for protection. They won’t make it in time. We were lucky to have been there on an “off weekend” according to the forest service workers. Apparently it’s rare for them to make it through a weekend without a person going “missing”. But what can you expect when in such a remote area. That’s the risk you take. The scenery was absolutely beautiful. It’s just too bad our entire trip was tainted by a bunch of hooligans. We made it out alive thankfully. Funny thing is though, that’s it’s the first public place we ever camped that literally had government issued signs stating “Camp at your own risk”. I can’t recall seeing that anywhere and I have traveled the entire US camping. I would stay away. There are many campgrounds on the way to this one that seemed much more domicile. Wish we would have visited one of those.
