Well maintained dirt road (it gets plowed in the winter and graded every few years and the county repairs major damage), but is very swampy. Check this out with a real 4x4 before trying it with a car - We traveled through it with an Escape with nothing more than a bunch of bouncing, tried it again with a Suburban with just as much bouncing. Travels through private farmland, but it is a public road. Warning! Deep ruts, puddles, and deep mud on this road.
