Several sites are described as creek-adjacent, including Camp Site 70 and Camp Site 68, each about 100 feet from a serene creek and suited to campers seeking fishing and quiet waterside experiences. Electrical hookups are available at select locations such as Camp Site 34 and Camp Site 29, while premium dry sites like Camp Site 55 provide a secluded forest setting.
