“Great Disbursed camping”

Reviewed 7/3/2024

Nightly rate:	FREE!
Days stayed:	3
Site Number:	na
RV Length:	22' (Travel Trailer)

Overall Rating

There are 2 NF disbursed camping areas here. The “official” disbursed site is just as you turn off the main road on your right. There is a sign pointing to the area. The second area is the next right down the same road to the boat launch. It is a small road into a smaller area than the first. However I don’t think it is as well known (a local told us about it). On July 3rd we were one of 3 trailers here. There were 4 in the main area with room for more. The second area has room for 4 or so. A couple miles down the is McGillivray Campground with 33 sites.
