We had a great stay! The river was very high so it was fun to watch it flow swiftly by. The hiking was excellent. And this was the friendliest camping we've ever done. All the campers were ready with a smile and a wave. We met some great people and made some new friends.

This was a phenomenal camping experience. We camped at site "A" of the walk-in sites. It was not a long walk from the small parking area; easily accessed even in the dark by walking across a flat, open grassy field. The camp site itself was great, with a flat, level dedicated pad for the tent. The picnic table and fire ring were in good shape. The bathrooms were average for a campground; running water and well-lit. Overall, the entire campground was a hit for our family.

We used the group camp sites for our stay. It was perfect! There was plenty of space for tents, cooking & playing games on our site. The bathrooms were clean and easily accessible. We loved how close we were to the Buffalo River to sit by the water or to go swimming. It was a great weekend!
