Campground is less than a mile off 395 on a good gravel road. It's free and the campsites are quite spacious.
ATT cellphone reception was good.
Notes on each visit (posted cost • senior cost):
This is a real godsend tonight. Some campgrounds have closed for the season (arg!) and the rest are full due to fishing season and fall colors, so that there was really no place to stay in the area on Saturday night.
The turnoff on 395 is unmarked, but I was looking for it. After checking it out a bit, I went back to the first empty site I drove past when I entered, at the southeast corner of the campground.
Its virtue is that it faces outward into the trees rather than inward towards a bunch of RVs.
