It has been years sense I have been to holy. I slept in the car last time but looking to be a little more comfortable this time around. I know Jack is close but I'm looking for more of a 5-10 minute drive if one exists?

Steve,
The Holies is a secret place that no one can keep secret.
Directions (sorta)

I went there a couple times many years ago with directions drawn on a napkin from SoIll Holds founder and all around good guy Dave Chancellor.

As for camping...you could try the Beach (if you know where those boulders are). Not sure if there's restrictions but with the Mississippi running low there's got to be plenty of places along the river to camp.

How far is the beach from Holy, and yes it is a poorly kept secret. Now that access picked it up, it's only a matter of time before the secret is out for good.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
