We enjoy going to Downstream campground, it's very shaded and the playground areas are very nice. Kids love to be able to ride their bikes around the campground.

We have stayed here many times. One of our favorite places to camp. River access, clean modern bath houses. Flat, paved sites. With the senior pass, also a good price. Electric only hookups is not a problem for us. Beautiful walking path too.

Campground is quiet and very well maintained. Lots of large shade trees is very nice. The lots are spacious and even though the campground was full it didn't at all feel crowded. Would highly recommend this campground to anyone! Only small minor thing is no water hook-ups at each campsite.
