Ramp Quirks & Etiquette
Sand Launch, Pier Attached
The campground's launch is forest-simple: a sand ramp with four trailer spots and a fishing pier alongside — small boats, canoes, and kayaks in their element, the pier covering the bank anglers and the kids.
Camp-to-Cast Distance
Fourteen primitive sites sit a stone's throw from the water — the dawn bite here is a matter of coffee and thirty steps.
The Sinkhole Detour
Leave time for the boardwalk into the eighty-foot dry sinkhole up the trail — the forest's geology showpiece, and the reason half the visitors came.
