To many loud and obnoxious motorcycles, cars, trucks and water craft. Not a place for peace and quiet.

The rating is solely based off or site and the view! It was GORGEOUS! I believe we lucked out with the best site in the campground. To bad it was only for a quick overnight paying through.

Our stay was early June and We were in site 25 across from the playground. Back in sites, roomy enough for our 36’ motor home with just enough room for the Jeep. Had level concrete. Dump and water station nearby. Power was stable. The site is elevated above the river for nice views and breezes. We drove to the beach since we had too much to carry, but the beach is close enough to bike to. The beach is sandy and water is shallow, perfect for kiddos. The water was warm. Nice playground near the beach. Next time we will try for a spot closer to the beach. Nice boat launch close by. Visitor center was undergoing a remodel. Check out the fossil hunting area within the park!

As far as the campground goes it’s a five star. However it was blazing hot the three days we were there. So overall our stay was a four out of five stars. Because of the weather.
