The campground was wonderful. It was very well maintained. Our campsite did not have water but we managed without it as we were tent camping and didn’t need much water. Also our grill was broken and we had planned to use it as our only means of cooking meals. We were able to set it on the ground and use it, it did not have a bottom but we didn’t starve! Don’t let these things deter you though bcz we had such and good time and the views are amazing!!

The most shade for a campsite we have had in a long time. This would be a great camping spot for the summer days. Love the river and the hiking trails and you can catch catfish right from the bank of the river. No TV or cell service for Verizon unless you have a booster.
Park Host and Rangers are awesome people. Shower house was cleaned every day with trash pickup. Love this park.
