This is a beautiful campsite with a river running by and it is very clean. There are amazing tent sites with very flat spots that are super comfortable.

A beautiful campground, great host. Water was nearby, tried some fishing, no luck, but played in the water all day for two days. Campgrounds can be all about your camping neighbors, they can really ruin a wonderful time, but we had the best neighbors. Everyone in the campground was so nice, we had the best Labor Day weekend.

We absolutely loved this campground ! We stayed at site 15 which was very private and had little path down to river behind us. The campground host, Sally was awesome and everything was very clean and well kept. The campground is very close to kirkham hot springs and only about an hour drive up to the Stanley /Redfish area. The road noise was minimal and the dark night revealed spectacular stars

Beautiful and spacious primitive camping spaces. My kids loved going to draw water from the hand pump well. Super clean and hosts were friendly and attentive.

My family and I stayed at your park as part of a family reunion. The weather was great, being on the river even better for floating and cooling off. The facilities were clean and well kept. Thank You.
