Ask about this camp →U.S. Forest Service lists this as a developed campground. Expect marked sites, a fee station or a reservation, and the usual campground rules. The dispersed-camping freedom of the surrounding forest does not apply inside it. What changes is conditions — roads, gates, closures, fire rules. Check those with the unit before you commit to the drive.

Likely — The record is good enough to put a pin on, but thin in places. Treat the details as a starting point, not gospel.
How it was placed
Developed FEE campground (not free) - review | auto:usfs-fee 2026-08-20: US Forest Service developed campground, agency coordinates, agency states a fee. No dollar amount in the agency record -- expect a charge and confirm the current rate before you go. Not field-verified. | Fee 2026-08-21: $29 per night for a single site and $58 for a double, plus $10 per extra vehicle per night; day use is $10 per vehicle per day. Fees must be paid within 30 minutes of arrival and the campsite must be occupied every night paid; the forest directs campers to pay onsite through the Recreation.gov app Scan and Pay feature. The campground has a recreation.gov listing (254094) but it publishes no 2026 rates, so this figure rests on the forest page alone.
