The exit is #332 not #335. The fee is $9 per vehicle and $3 per bike if you bike in. There is not limit on the amount of "permits" that the description states. No permit is needed. You just need to pay your entrance fee. This is a great biking trail.

White Rock Loop is great, lots of sand though. If you ride the trail up to where it splits you should consider the Split Rock and the Elephant one great stuff.
