Everything was fine except for the trash and the traffic. To many nosey people couldn't get a break. I have PTSD and severe social anxiety. My fiance and I came out for a breather and can't get none.

Amazing primitive camping. Parking right by sites also hidden ones farther down. The road is a little sketchy but it's fine and worth it. Great trails. Right by river. Easy spots to collect fallen branches for fire wood. Some scorpions but not a lot. A large amount of spiders. Flat sites. Tent only. Fire rings. Very secluded. Bad cell service.

Nice camp sites. Firewood a little scarce, but I managed a nice fire. After a long rainy winter, this is my first night back on the road to Nashville. Arrived at night, so I don't know the views.

I believe it is a max of 7 consecutive nights if it's like other camp spots

How much does it cost to camp? Is it tent camping only? Any facilities? Thank you

It's free, car/van and tent camping. It is primitive camping. No water/toilets.

Also, is this Google address pretty accurate in getting us to the right location?

Yes, it will take you right there with GPS.

How far away is the campsite from a parking area?

K B | May 30, 2020

Right next to it. Two are about 10-20 yards away, there is another about 50 yards away down a steep trek to the riverside.
