The hike is a short one approximately half mile from parking lot to campsite. Head up the trail 200 yards find the white trail makers marked KK head down that, you'll soon come to two streams continue on the path and you find stream number three across it and a short hike up the trail and you're in the campsite. This spot was a true find and has everything needed water, firewood, tent and hammock spots.
