Have been going here for years and still it is one of our favorite places to go. Enjoy being able to reserve a favorite site. Beautiful campground on the banks of the St. Joe with lovely roomy sites.

The campsite was excellent and well maintained and the rest rooms were spotless. The grassy areas at each site were an added bonus and much of the brush from the past has been cleared. The major drawback was the traffic noise from the non-stop logging trucks driving by between 2am and 6am and the extremely loud compression breaks as they rounded the corner. Oh well, I guess progress is hard to eliminate. I do believe it was an extremely heavy logging lease season.

Great place to visit. Campsites are easily accessible, clean and right on the St Joe river. Great fishing experience!

This is a beautiful campground located right on the St. Joe river. The sites are spacious and well spaced-out. The campground hosts were very friendly and did a great job keeping the bathrooms clean and emptying the trash cans that were conveniently located throughout the grounds. The nearby highway is a little noisy at night, with logging trucks passing by. We ventured up to the town of Avery, perhaps 15 mi up the road, where the fly shop had excellent sandwiches and ice cream for lunch, in addition to good fishing advice. We are already planning a return trip!

I would like to say the campground is beautiful, same with the location and it’s very well kept. With that being it’s not a place for families with older kids or larger dogs. The whole campground was dark and completely quiet before 8pm. The river if full of people fly fishing so the dogs and the kids couldn’t play or float in the river. The camp host was extremely rude to my husband and berated him about our dog not being on a leash walking down to the river. He didn’t even give my husband a chance to go to the truck to truck to the leash just came back and told my husband he was taking too long and how we are disrespecting the camp rules. We ended up leaving right after. We will definitely not camp there again.

We loved this place. Even though it's on the highway and can get a bit noisy, if you have a spot on the river you don't notice it much. We had everything we love in a site: shade, privacy, and water access. We will be back!

The river is beautiful and most of the campsites on the side next to the river have a path to the water. Most campsites have a nice grassy area and the back-in sites have a nice buffer of trees between sites that provide privacy and some noise reduction. If you have a pull-through site or are next to the highway, you won't have much privacy. There is considerable noise from the highway - the logging trucks start coming down the hill around 3am and use their jacob brakes right next to the campground. Bring earplugs!

The upgrades done in 2023 are not obvious - new electrical panels are the only clue. There is still just one Wifi hotspot across from the camp host. It was nice to have our own water faucet, but it could not be hooked up to our camper because the threads were filed off of the faucet.

The pit toilet was sub par and pretty dirty. WiFi signal was too weak to connect anywhere in the campground. The whole side of our van was also keyed during our first night. We chose to move on to better accomodations and eat the cost of our second night.
