It was nice and quiet. It would have been better with full hookups and more shade trees.

If you want to fish the river, this is the place. But it's very snakey and buggy. It's ok for a stop over though.

The mosquitoes were soooooo bad. Fire, fans, spray, citronella. NOTHING. Don't stay on outer loop. No campfire wood at host site. Barely enough to collect from fallen trees. Packed up and went to parking lot near river instead. Husband says showers were 5.25/5.
