What Guests Are Saying

River Road offers a peaceful camping experience with friendly and attentive hosts, clean facilities, and beautiful scenery by the river and dam. While the site has limited space for large tents and some minor issues like sawdust from tree removal and limited shower availability, overall, guests appreciated the well-maintained grounds and enjoyed their time in nature. The lack of cell service may be a drawback for some, but many found it refreshing and conducive to relaxation.

I drove to this camp from Delaware to watch the April 2024 eclipse. The hosts were very friendly and helpful, and the camp was very clean. The dam and the waterway were beautiful! We had a very restful and much needed vacation and would love to come back. Thank You!! 😁
