The campground is a single loop through a stand of Jeffrey pines
near Williamson River, but none of the campsites have a view of
the river. Although not right on US Rt. 97, campground can be a
pleasant location for overnight stop or longer. An abundant
ground cover of leafy shrubs provide excellent privacy. Good
campground for quiet and solitude. A grey [dish] water disposal
site is located in campground. A possible day trip is Colliers
State Park with its logging museum.
