Great campground. Great Host!! Was a little disappointed with access to the river. Weather was great and campground was super clean. Wish the showers were free as the interwebs said. Minor things.

We had an amazing and relaxing time during our stay. The bathroom and shower facilities were super clean, which we really appreciated. The only small issue was that our kids wanted to swim and paddleboard, so we had to drive to a neighboring campground for them to go swimming and paddleboarding. Overall, it was a great trip, and we truly enjoyed our time there.

This was our 3rd time there this summer, and it was just a lovely and relaxing as the first 2 times! There is a train that goes through, but it's intermittent and easy to get accustomed to. We even brought some friends this time, and they all had a blast, too! The host(ess) is super sweet and attentive if you need anything, and she keeps the toilets and showers in great condition! (There's nothing like a shower before bed on your final night to get a good sleep!)
