Not a good place to camp in winter! Very muddy, we got completely stuck and had to call for assistance. Hadn’t been raining recently, just frost thawing makes it unusable! Also no signal for a way down the road Toilet looked pretty minging too
Not really suitable for campervans, very uneven I got stuck
Weed everywhere, uneven surfaces, and creepy people around fire place that’s actually not allowed. Also no phone service at all.. Would not recommend.
Beautiful place in the middle of nature. The road to the camp is made of gravel but in great conditions. It's a great place to spend the night but it's better if you arrive with sunlight so that you feel safe when driving since it's a narrow road. I would love to spend another night there. There is no phone signal
Great site ! We had a lovely afternoon and night here. The log work is done nearby so the view is nice again. Log trucks come and go up to 5pm but after that just 2 or 3 cars. The lower camp is the best because it's a bit protected from the road and direct access to the river (which is beautiful and swimmable !). The pin on campermate shows the place of the middle camp, bigger but less flat and just next to the road (there's a 3rd one 2km up, we didn't check it). Toilet are long drop, clean and
Not a good road, very far in the middle of nowhere, an outhouse, no reception but nice scenery and very quiet
It’s for FREE :) We are so thankful :)
Un campement entre les commentaires et la réalité: nous étions bien stressés en lisant les commentaires si nous allions survivre à cette nuit, arrivant de plus la nuit, mais cela semble être le seul camping gratuit pour vehicle non certifié de la région. Finally, it is a route de gravel le dernier 5 km and la moitié des montagnes sont coupées à blanc. Rien qui ne nous a empêché de dormir ;)
Nice little quote place, sits by the river, road is bit rough, and log trucks come back n forth in the morning, can sometimes be noisy.
A bit more spacious than the previous campsite. Clean toilet and rubbish disposal facilities. Across the road is a small stream. Just a bit eerie. We did not stay.
