We stayed on one of the sites next to the river. The view was awesome and the concrete pad was nice & level. We had our own pavilion and charcoal grill. There is a lot of traffic from what I assumed were fishermen throughout the day & night so there is traffic noise. There is no gate and there was no attendant at the building entrance for the time we were there. You have to drive past a cement loading area on the river with many trucks driving through. We had a tug & barge tie up almost in front of us on the river at 3 AM which made a little noise & their lights shined into our RV during anchoring. Other than that, it was a decent stay though the traffic would probably keep us from staying here again.
