An absolutely wonderful little campground. It is well maintained; the area is quiet and very peaceful. There were beautiful decks built at the rivers edge and a lovely walking path encompassing the entire campground. The shower house was kept clean so that was a plus as well.
We couldn't believe how nice our stay was for the price. We'll definitely be back.

Many nice level sites that are reasonably spaced, electric only. Some sites directly on river edge.. Nice paved, short loop walking trail around the campground--great for my wife who has mobility issues. Fairly level hiking trail with nice river views, winds past old oil well pumps, then crosses highway and climbs hill-- more strenuous. Peaceful, well-maintained park. Will definitely camp here again.

My only real criticism is that we were unsure about how to check in, so perhaps a sign saying "the campground host will come around" or "go there to check in" would be nice. Restrooms were clean and, unlike most campgrounds, the showers here had hot water almost instantly and were warm enough to be pleasingly comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

We were in site 9. Wonderful site but the electric connection was shared and on the opposite side from normal. We needed almost 50ft of electrical cord length.

First time at this campground. It was very well taken care of and a beautiful place to camp. Great view of the river and plenty areas to fish. Shower house was very clean. Very quiet in the campground. The only negative comment that I have (and it doesn’t have anything to do with the campground) is the road noise from across the river. There is constant traffic and tractor trailers de to being a heavily traveled road.
