We enjoyed our week long stay. I wish the catfishing would been better, but thats how it is when it's hand grabbing season! But over all it was most enjoyable.

We stayed in site #91. There are only two sites that are "full on" sun and this is one of them. It has a great view of the river. There is one small concrete path "hike" in the park that we saw. Access to the river is done by two boat ramps - not really from any sites. Most of the sites are shaded, large and level. Park is well maintained and bathhouses are clean.

Good place to relax. However the road surface is no longer suitable to ride bikes. Much to uncomfortable for to propagation cracks and possibly root cracks. Roads need complete overhaul before bikes can be again enjoyed by me.
