I spent the night there a week ago today. It's a nice place but it's very crowded but it's public ground what are you going to do about it
Delightful, secluded place to hike with dispersed camping. Views of Monroe lake are stunning
Charles C. Deam Wilderness is not to be confused with Deam Lake State Recreation Area down by Memphis, Indiana.
Great for hiking and dispersed camping.
(In regards to previous comment about location: Yes, this really is Deam Wilderness, part of Hoosier National Park. Memphis IN has Deam Lake State Recreational Area (38.467458,-85.863506) which is a completely different place.)
Loved this place! Definitely primitive
Tons of great trails and surprises along the way. Certainly worth a look if you're in the area. Spring and fall are the best times to go, due to heat/ticks during the summer.
