Check-Ins

Had trouble find a place to drop our recycling in town so stopped here. Attendee was very friendly and helpful. Free. There is a donation box.

Rest area for cars, trucks, RVs with onsite bathrooms

We had time to spend a night au the spot where there is no forbidden sign but early in the morning a man from the city came to see us and told us we were not allowed to park here. We left. Too bad the view was great.

Great place just near the lake beach. There is a bar and a bathroom service. You need to pay a local tax to stay on the site.

Wonderful site amongst line trees at these coordinates. Lots of rock fire pits, with plenty of dead trees for firewood all around. I think you must pay a $6 recreation fee (good for 3 days) to use the national forest, but unsure if it's necessary for dispersed camping. I've attached an image of the "fee area". Plenty of developed campsites nearby with pit toilets and garbage bins. This made a great half-way spot between Zion and Yellowstone for me; I just continued northeast on the 150 into Wyoming.

Very nice dispersed camping area. Plenty of designated locations along County Road 60. If you choose to stay at the same place we did (coordinates), just walk down the hill and there will be plenty of cool spots to relax by the river. You can pitch a tent on the riverbed too.
GPS directions may be unreliable, so just head on Hwy 285 and turn at the National Forest Access sign towards CR60.

I got "the knock" around 11:30pm. Opened the door to about 5 sheriff's deputies and the sheriff and about 4 police officers. A little over kill imho but they were all nice and one officer addressed me stating you couldn't sleep in your vehicle even though I haven't been able to find it in the local county or city ordinance. They let my van and a huge bus parked about 100' behind me stay the one night since it was late. I thanked them. They were nice. Parking is $3/hr!, but free after 8pm.

Free with fill-up, potable water further ahead. The lock is broken, no need to see cashier. $5 if you don't fill up.

Great place, especially on car side if you have a smaller rig. All these little cocoons of 3/4 parking spot. Can be very secluded and peaceful if you want to.
Lots of tree coverage as well.

beautiful setting in more than a backyard but a two tier level spot for tents and rooftop tent is in dirt but level and a great spot for table veranda shade and tiled spot to hang. very nice couple owns it, and they help the villagers for sure. near town, and nice walking Area to chocolate factory. corona Times 6 usd a night, campfires and decent food. i recommend highly in Zomba

Dump Station right next to Office. Double sided

Great free campground along the Natchez Trace. We stayed two nights and only saw three other campers roll through. Bathrooms are still closed due to Covid-19. If you go hiking be careful of the poison oak and ivy.

Now 150pppn, getting a bit too expensive for a one night quickie stop type place.

Plenty of room. Had restroom and trash cans. Some spots had electric. Nice picnic tables and burn rings with grill to cook on.

4x4 and high clearance needed, for sure, & as op mentioned, if your vehicles tall, youll probably get stuck in the trees. but the spot was well worth the treck. stunning views!

Amazing views of the mountains with an unreal sunset. Highly recommend!

Friendly people we gave 20 pesos ..............

Easy access to a free water spigot along the East side of the building. We have a 40’ Super C with a tow and we were able to pull right up, fill the tank, and drive around the back of the building. Easy!

Nice freedom camping spot as the estuary meets the sea. Picnic tables. Nice and quiet

Beautiful views under midnight sun. Spaces scattered nicely. Clear and 44F for the first of June. Photos taken at 12:15am Saw a wolf to the south at 12:30am!

This place is definitely not closed. Great spot for overnight. 4hr parking in the day, some spots around don’t have that restriction. As OP said, there’s plenty of good spots in the nearby block with different street sweeping schedules.

Water spigot on wall next to car wash entrance. Gas was cheap, but pump was sloooow!

Great place to stay on the beach for a couple of days. Big sites with private ablution. See description for all details.

Water spigot and bathrooms. Trash cans also available.

Lots to do. There are trails going out to the desert and the sand dunes. I don’t think bikes but horses and hikers are allowed. You can climb the sand dunes. There is one that is smaller, but good for a short climb and there is one that is 400 feet high if you want to climb for a spectacular view. Behind the dunes there is reservoir for fishing and swimming. There is also a observatory there but not sure when it is open. There are 2 main campgrounds. One is just for RVs but the other is RV and tent. Shade structures and fire rings are in this section. Monday and Tuesday host is not in campground. On that note it’s good to check in host or visitor center for open camping sites. Some can be taken, but say they are not reserved.

Dispersed camping only once you get past the Animas overlook. Keep driving and there are several pull offs along the road. We found one with amazing views and a short trail. Also, there was no litter and no poop here.. 2wd sprinter made it up. Please, remember to bring a trowel to dig a cat hole 6in deep for human poop. Or pack it out.

We ended up staying here 6 days. Two days at the bottom of road and four days further up towards the hiking trailhead.

It’s a great area, but super busy with lots of adventure seekers. The road to the trailhead was non stop from dawn to dusk. It was super windy during our 6 day stay, but we found a spot tucked in the trees to block the wind.

We didn’t see any homeless people, but lots of cows...maybe the reviewer was confused:) the trailhead leads to the summit of 2 14ers in one day so plenty of hikers and bikers...we weren’t that ambitions just walked and explored the roads.

Rest area. 8h max but we spend almost 15h there with any problems. There’s a river just through a short walk. Good mountain views.

Very nice place, very peaceful. Talked to a friendly local here. And there is a café right beside (of all things at a remote place like this) called Storhavet Café of you want to get a meal of a Coffey.
