Reviews

Right on the road but the road is not too heavily traveled.
Water there and an outhouse. Water is pretty stinky and tastes bad but fine for washing dishes. Outhouse there. All you can ask of a free camping spot. Worth stopping in if you're traveling the river road which is beautiful and fun to drive. Wouldn't want to be on it at night as it's very narrow and the drops are steep and the guard rails are rare.
