About
The water here has heavy metals that give it a blue/white color. There are currently thirty designated sites with the expectation of adding more in the future. The area is surrounded by private land parcels that aren't marked. Campers must camp at a designated site or they will be camping on private property. On the weekends, Peru Creek is popular. Visitors should arrive early to get a site. The road can be narrow at times, but it is accessible to normal clearance vehicles. It may be hard for low-clearance vehicles. It is a popular place for off road vehicle rentals. AT&T cell service is intermittent at the lower sites.
