We camped at Sassafras Hill Camping area in the Thornhurst Track. Reserving the site was easy with a quick response, including my question about the ability to get a travel trailer there, as I could find very little info on this campsite. Instructions and signage to find the site were decent at first but then became more challenging, but this was the only challenge. We drove our truck with 28 foot trailer, along single lane but very well maintained roads for several miles into the forest.. The campsite is huge with large fire pit and two picnic tables.

There are sites along the north and south loop which have nice flat spots for tents and a campfire ring. Many south loop sites have access to the creek. The sites are in clumps, like around 2 mi into the trail on the north side, and along the bottom.of the loop on the south side. There are a fewww scattered around otherwise
