The campsites are spacious. Towering pine trees provide shade. This is the closest campground to Jewel Cave National Monument. The forest offers highly accessible recreation for all ages. Visitors can take advantage of opportunities for hiking, fishing, horseback riding, mountain biking, and riding off-highway vehicles (OHVs) on moderate terrain.
