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 2026-08-27: $30 per night, single site; $60 double; $100 for the yurt. That is recreation.gov listing 232758's current peak season (2026-05-09 to 2026-09-11) and it is the booking price. The forest's own page is a step behind at $28 single / $58 double / $95 yurt; it also states additional vehicles are $12 per night, which recreation.gov does not list.
