There is only one official campground at "Big Scrub". Of 42 your on your own...

Big Scrub has basic bathrooms and water in the center camping area. No power. Gen sets off at 10pm $5.00  a night. Ride out right from your RV or tent.

off of 40 near 588 (she told me 6-8 miles to scrub, plus u can 'ride out' from there but apparently u have to cross 40, and she said the cops don't like it. I think I got the last cabin for this weekend.

I've stayed at Mill Dam numerous times. It's a great little place for the price.
From Mill Dam you have to take 40 east 5 miles to 588 then south on 588 9 miles to Big Scrub.
You can also follow the fence line west to the last entrance of the mobile home park (mill dam lake) and jump in the woods there. It is a beautiful place to ride around the lake.
