This location has beautiful wooded forest with plenty of space between sites. You get to feel peacefully tucked in and not too close to other campers. The only complaint was that the pier on the river is in disrepair. There are signs up saying it is closed because it is unsafe to walk on. Would have been a good place to try fishing or just sit and watch boats go by if it weren't so dilapidated.

Great place to stay for a game weekend or quite camping. For enough from town to be nice and quiet. Great staff.

Site 20 was great. Level site facing the woods and very private on all sides.

It was very nice and clean both the restrooms as well as the growns. Friendly staff. Please be prepared when coming to this park, it is in a remote area and about 15 min from the nearest store or food.

Beautiful campground, the campsites were very nice. BUT the yellowjackets were bad! I couldn’t have a drink outside without them flying all around it, even swallowed one and got stung in the mouth so that was not fun. And my friend also got stung in the arm. I guess it’s a part of camping, but never experienced that before until now. Other than that, i would definitely camp here again. But would definitely take precautions with the yellowjackets!

The park is quiet with beautiful views. The restroom is clean and well stocked. The fishing dock is closed but you don’t know that until you get to it (down a deep sloped trail). The swimming area is desolate, not sure anyone would want to swim there. The trail is open and paved. We saw many deer, turkeys, butterflies, and hummingbirds. The camp hosts are very present and friendly. Overall a nice place and we will come back!
