Gum Springs Recreation Area is a free day-use area with paid campsites. This area makes a great spot to rest during a trek or use as a meeting area with family and friends. There are numerous, intertwining trails leading to the water's edge along with horse trails (also open to foot and bike traffic) on the other side of the main road.
