Fox Mountain Campground and Artist Retreat is a primitive campground surrounded by mountains and forests, which means BUGS.

Be prepared: bring the repellent of your choice, and don't freak out when these beautiful and fascinating woodland creatures show up in your temporary space.
Most of the bugs here won't hurt you* and their beauty and their weirdness both deserve admiration.
For example, visiting yesterday was a classically weird creature, the Stick Bug...

All the creatures on Fox Mountain invite you to visit their grassy, leafy home. Even the little weird ones! *Full disclosure: you may encounter mosquitoes, chiggers, and ticks. Hey, you're a camper, deal with it!
