The location was beautiful next to the water. The campsites in Loop B felt secluded. The campsite and restrooms were clean.

Camp spots are super close, basically parking on the edge of the campground road. We roadtripped through a weeks worth of different parks and this was by far our least favorite.

Such an excellent campground. Rangers were nice and easy-going. Camground area itself was beautiful and wonderfully taken care of. Restrooms were really clean. Definitely a good place to camp.

Nice spot. Close to the river, but while relaxing, random people drove parked next to our campground to get a quick dip in the river.
