Had really nice neighbors and clean campground. Wish the flush toilets and showers were fixed.

Beautiful campground. Helpful host. Unfortunately most facilities were closed due to construction when it was obvious no construction was going on. No showers, flush toilets. The main trail to the trail across the highway was closed. These facilities should be on the fast track to be reopened for full camper experience. Disappointing. We still salvaged a good stay with the wonderful view of the river.

Kept up very nice. Camp host was very nice knew everything about the area. What was bad no one said they didn't have the shower house or bathrooms open. They did have the one pit bathroom open. Not enough for a full campground.

Tent camping was not listed as carry in only. The showers were not functioning and only one bathroom area was working.

The campground, scenery and camp host were great. Sadly, our electric pedestal did not work. But we're good at boondocking, so it was OK. We will visit again in the future.
