This pack-in/pack-out BLM recreation site is located along the Sun River and provides river access for rafting and fishing. Five campsites are available on a first come first served basis with fire rings and picnic tables. One vault toilet is available at the site and a new bear box has been installed due to increased bear activity in the area. The recreation site is accessed by an all-season county road that has a bridge with a 10-ton limit leading to a gravel loop for easy access to the camp sites.

Livestock are fenced out to provide for visitor and livestock safety.

The area receives heavier usage during the fall hunting season. For visitor safety, shotgun and archery use are only permitted during the hunting season.
