Overall Rating 1.5 FDL
Type of Site Tent Site allegedly It's small
Easy to find? Eagle Scout Neil Armstrong found Tranquility base with less trouble The road to the site has been washed out for the last couple of years.
Capacity They say it's a tent site If you use your imagination, you may be able to squeeze two tents there.
Can you drive to it? They say you can What do you do with your car once you get there?
Water It is right on the shores of the "Ole swimmin hole" Boil water for drinking. 
Latrine None It is just a clearing next to a swimming hole.
Biggest Advantage Before the days of lawyers, the Father Meyers swimming hole was a refreshing dip from a long day on the trail The Scouts forbid you from doing this.  The hole is not supervised and its safety can not be established.
Secondary Advantage If you are standing in the site, you probably still have a pulse Look at the bright side.
Primary Disadvantage It's tiny, with no facilities As a destination for a day hike, or an interesting place to hang out, it's great.  As a camp site, nooooooo.
Secondary disadvantage You may find some "empties" from the pervious soirées of former camp staff men and locals. It was a secluded place to do all sorts of immature things.

For info on reserving this site, check out the GNYC Council Website.
