Campground is wonderful. Nice spots next to the river. Late summer camping is our favorite time. Cool weather, beautiful colors, peaceful and relaxing! All spots are kept clean and facilities are well maintained.

Beautiful camp sites on Mill Creek , we love how most of the sites are far enough away that you really don’t notice the neighbors. Lots of shade, fresh water and clean vault toilets. We will definitely be camping here again.
