Easy parking for my 35’ motorhome, quiet nights sleep, a lovely hike down to the river, great sunset, easy off and on to I-15.

The access to register is somewhat cumbersome. I was unable to register through the website so had to download the app in order to register. With limited connectivity, it was a challenge.

This is a beautiful campground in a beautiful area. While no services at this campground , it is well maintained and sites are spacious.

Nice campground with beautiful views. Nice access to and from the freeway but far enough the highway noise isn’t a big issue.
The only suggestion I would make is to have water available especially for people who don’t have an rv.

Nice campground with a couple problems that need to be fixed. First is the bathrooms were completely covered in dead bugs. Thousands of dead bugs littered all over the sinks and floors. The toilet paper and hand paper were stocked up frequently but there was no effort in cleaning up the bugs during this. The second problem is most reservable sites sit empty while showing fully booked on the website. Having a site with a gazebo would’ve been nice when it was 98 degrees for days on end but instead I would say 90% of those sat empty. There should be some sort of check in process via QR code and if the reserved party doesn’t check in, they are contacted by email to see if they are still coming or not.

Sehr schöner naturbelassener Campingplatz, mit tollen Möglichkeiten zum Grillen. Keine Duschmöglichkeiten vorhanden.

Great Experience, but no water available to fill your RV. The water available refers to the restrooms and water fountains at the restroom building. Not a big deal, just info in case you need to refill H2O.

Cool place. Clean restrooms. Just the basics done right for the price.
