Great campsite! Host was helpful but not intrusive. Good time to stay in the winter. Not many people. Quiet and beautiful.

The campsite was very clean and the hosts were friendly. Close to town with interesting views so it is easy to get everything you forgot. Near site 12 there is a path that will take you across the street and there is a mountain you can hike

It was wonderful, majestic and peaceful. Camped next to the river. Cold this time of year,
but with warm clothes and a campfire, it was perrrrrfect.
