Way too crowded, not enough trees, campsites too close, rude people walking through others' campsites, weird shed on campsite (56?), small beach area that is also open to the public

The camp hosts were above and beyond the most friendly and hard working I have ever experienced in my life! Thank you so much for your hard work in these difficult times and friendly demeanor. This was the perfect campground if you have roudy kids and a normal dog! Having the park and river made it a perfect family destination. Sites were private enough, road was louder than expected.

Great for kayaking or boats. Wildlife space and rivers. But try and get a spot away from the road if tent camping. Always friendly.
