This is a great place to go and enjoy the outdoors. The campsites have your basis necessities and I like that they have bathrooms nearby.

Pleasant stay. The foliage could use a trimming. Few items of trash left behind from previous campers. VERY clean toilets.

Campground was very nice and clean. Campsites were spaced out well. About half are next to the River. The privy’s were newer and clean.

We camped here for 4 nights and 3 days it was beautiful, relaxing and quiet. There are three new toilets that were kept clean. There is a hand pump for water. There are bear proof storage containers at the site. There is no phone service.
It was perfect and I can not wait to go back!

The trip was great, but I am concerned that people might be making reservations in the prime camping spots just to lock up those spots so they can have access to them anytime they want to. There were a number of spots that I know were booked when I made my reservation, but no one ever camped in them. There needs to be some sort of control on this where if you never show up for your reservation then 1st offense you get a warning, second offense you are blocked from making a reservation for a month. Third offense you are blocked from making a reservation for a year. And on your fourth offense you are blocked from making a reservation for life.
