The grounds and campsites are great! Walking and bike trails were nice. That said, the shower house is not clean at all. The shower curtain for the stall I was in had mildew and mold all over it. The shower curtains did not fit the shower stalls. The mirrors were very dirty, one of the two faucets used to wash hands, basically just put out a very small stream of water. Overall, it was just not clean.
The toilet tissue holders were not round and the toilet tissue rolls were too tight to turn, making it impossible to get toilet tissue unless you just 'unwind it' from the roll. There was no one at the fee/check-in building even though it was during the hours that the notice said it was manned (around 2 PM) when we arrived at the campground. I only used one of the bathroom only buildings, and it was cleaner than the shower house, but still had a lot to be desired. As mentioned, Verizon cell service was barely existent.

Campgrounds were well maintained and easy to navigate with a larger trailer. Site was very level and had full hookups. Plenty of walking trails and parks, plus river access only a short drive or bike ride away. We'll most certainly be back.

The hosts are nice, but do not spend the night while on duty. I feel a little vulnerable with no authority to turn to if needed. We love the park.

A beautiful camp ground, clean, quiet, well maintained, in a beautiful setting. We go here several times a year. Reservations months in advance is a must if you plan to visit here.
