Stayed at the spring creek camp site just up the road from the turn off to the Bungles,what a great spot, there is always lots of people there and you can leave your van if you want do a day trip or even overnight like we did to go into the Bungles.
We parked in front of the creek and you can have a fire if you bring your own wood.
We stayed there 4nights and met some great people, to have drinks with and exchange story's with,also before that one we stayed at Mary's Pool which is another very busy one where it is better to get there early,also Ellendale, all on the same road.
Great traveling.
