The campground was clean, the restroom was kept clean. Eric and his wife are awesome and were very accommodating. There was a bear that visited us the first night, but they came and took care of it the next day. The beach was relaxing and the kids had a blast. We have been before for day use but first time camping. The place is very well maintained by the hosts

I stayed at this Campground before and really enjoyed it, this time was better though...what made it more enjoyable? The host Eric and his wife are very pleasant, attentive, and really enjoy their work. Bears came frequently during the day and night, if you are afraid this is definitely not the spot for you...

The campsite and river were just gorgeous. The kitchen area with tons of tables and cooking areas were fabulous. Great for a big group. And the camp hosts were kind and helpful!

There were a ton of mosquitoes everywhere, so be prepared for that. But the camp host Eric and his wife were super nice and friendly and did everything in there power to make our stay more comfortable. They also completely cleaned up the park after the last storm and it looked so much better. Loved having the whole campground to ourselves as well.

This is the worst campground I have ever been to. DO NOT CAMP HERE. There are a number of problems with it, one there are no signs marking the group camp, nothing stating it is a reserved site. When we arrived there were random people using the group site for a picnic. There are 7 parking stalls for the campground, all of them were taken up by day use people, as again there is no signage anywhere stating this is a group site and the parking stalls are reserved. This campground is located a solid distance from the water and day use area, and people who parked further away used the campsite as a short cut which is incredibly off putting. The group camp only has one bathroom and one trash can, and when we arrived a little after check in time, both were found to be unusable. The bathroom was horrendously filthy, absolutely disgusting and downright unsanitary. The trash was overflowing with garbage, with mounds of trash all around it.
If anyone wants to know how nasty the bathrooms were, the photos are up under the Google review for this campground.
The photos online are of the day use area, NOT THIS CAMPGROUND.

Do not come here for camping.
This is a very nice place for daily use. But if you want to stay overnight, this place is not safety.
No camp host at site. Gate does not close at 8pm like description. No one answer the camp site phone.
This camp site is a scam
