Beautiful location. Clean and well maintained grounds. Easy and affordable booking. Great hiking, biking, public hunting and fishing opportunities either right at camp or nearby. The local cafe Oak Barrel had good food, amazing ice cream and cheesecake options! I will be returning next spring.

We were in lot 6 and 7 which offered a beautiful view of the river. The sounds of trains in the distance and a warm day made the stay peaceful.

Very affordable. NPS officers are slightly menacing looking

Lovely spot. Trains ran all night across the river but it was oddly normal before too long.
