It's a great spot next to the river. The sites are well laid out. Lots of trees and birds around. There's a great little trail that leads to a small beach next to a swimming hole. It's a great place to bird watch and relax. Had a lovely time.

Beautiful stay at a well maintained campground. Loved having the whole place to ourselves and the private swimming hole was glacially cold, crystal clear, and wonderful. The people who left the day we arrived left a nasty bathroom and an overfull recycling bin, both of which we had to clean out, so if you rent this place, be prepared with cleaning supplies and extra bags, but otherwise it was pretty dang perfect. As we were packing up to leave the ranger arrived to collect garbage/recycling and do his drive through, gave a compliment on the cleanliness of the bathroom and was super friendly and helpful. I think the only other piece of advice would be to bring something to get rid of the noseeums, which swarm for about an hour in the evening, and they're attracted to the mosquito repellant my family used, which was pretty weird. They're not bitey, just obnoxious. Regardless, if you rent this place, you won't regret it. Have a great stay!
