| Beautiful, peaceful campground | |
This is a primitive campground in the Eastern part of the Ozark National Forest. It is several miles down a gravel road that's not suitable for big RVs. The campground is the site of an old CCC camp. Sites are mostly large and wooded. I recommend site 11 as well as the ones down by the creek. You can swim in Gunner Pool or in Sylamore Creek. Make sure you hike on the Sylamore Creek Trail which runs through the campground. This campground was full on a Saturday night but almost empty during the week. The only downside was the occasional smell of the chemicals in the latrines wafting through the campground.
We stayed here in a Tent. | | Comments (0) |
