Basic electric hookups make this workable for most RVs, though you'll rely on shared facilities for water and waste. The remote location earns its keep with solitude and unspoiled surroundings — just stock up on supplies before you head out. Facilities are basic — bring what you need and expect a more self-sufficient camping experience.
