This was our first visit to Outlet Park Campground. We were in site No. 12 which was backed up to the river. We got to see a lot of water fowl and other birds IE: Osprey, Bald Eagle, Great Blue Heron, Green Heron, Belted King Fisher and many other birds. The Vultures were hanging around because something in the trees across the river must have died. The park is quiet and the bathrooms and showers were kept clean and well stocked. Our travel trailer is 33' long and fit just fine in this site with room for our tow vehicle in front of the trailer. We only had one problem with this site and that was being a little bit narrow which made the fire pit have to be placed where it was really too close to the door of our trailer and we got the smoke in the trailer. On our next visit we will choose a site that is wider. We will definitely come back.

Nice campground. Terrible shower facility. Condition of the shower house is disgraceful!! Building should be thoroughly renovated or destroyed and rebuilt.

Really wonderful, secluded campground. Quiet surroundings, mature trees, well maintained spots and facilities. Great hiking trail nearby (and many others within a short drive). We will definitely return here again.
