Within Hoosier National Forest, Mitchell Creek Road provides dispersed camping along a forest trail that may lead to private residences. The US Forest Service manages this drive-in site, which features a fire ring and a small clearing for camping setup.
One reviewer noted safety concerns about the remote location and opted not to stay overnight, particularly given the need to remove valuables from vehicles for car camping arrangements. The trail's uncertain destination and isolated setting may require campers to assess their comfort level with the area's remoteness before committing to an overnight stay.
