★★★☆☆ 3.0 Chelsea Ketchum · Jun 2025

The location of this site is exactly right using Google Maps. I downloaded a map of the area before I went as you get limited service in the woods. The path to site 5 coming from the “Middle Trail” is not well marked, so take the Yellow Birch trail instead. It was 2.5 miles coming from the middle trail over pretty challenging terrain over boulders and steep hills. This site has a vault style toilet so fewer runs to the parking lot for #2 bathroom visits. But no walls around the toilet so little privacy. It is a little loud being near the waterfall vs 3 and 4 were quieter with a calmer part of the river flowing by those. Had at least 3 level places for tents and lots of shade. Had a nice fire pit and wooden log bench and rock table that was nicer than the setup at sites 3 and 4.
