Clean bathhouse, great views, mostly quiet setting, (occasional loud vehicle on highway behind us.) The location is close to many attractions (fishing, boating, shopping, nightlife.) No playground and not a lot of space around each campsite, so maybe not appropriate for young families.

This campsite was beautiful, right on the Missouri River and Lewis & Clark Lake. Had a clean bathroom, showers were nice, and the showers were free. Would definitely stay at this place again.

Check in was a little confusing and had to get help from another camper in order to get to the right place as they don't have anyone at the building
