One of several campgrounds in Ferne Clyffe State Park; this one is a nice middle ground for backpackers and "rustic" car campers, with camping pads, pit toilets, showers(!), cooking grills and picnic tables. If you want more quiet, there's another class C campground, specifically for backpackers, about a half-mile away.
