Riverside view is outstanding, but the park is in need of some maintenance. The bathroom / shower house is the worst I've ever encountered: the (blank) cleaning check off sheet on the door dated from April and by the looks of them they MAYBE were last cleaned in March. Poop in toilet bowl, mud and paper towels on shower floor remained throughout our stay, as did the dust around the sink. Many sites as well as the walking path are prone to forming deep puddles after a rain and many campsites (including ours) saw the paved portion covered with mud after heavy rains.
On the plus side, the host was friendly, but came across as a bit nosey and seemed more interested in dropping in on the campers than in performing any real work. (I also noticed that some of the "site reserved" signs in the campsites were from 2 years ago!). As mentioned, the view is outstanding and the campers there were quiet and considerate of one another. I would stay here again, but plan on using the facilities in the camper rather than those provided.

The area is very pretty- the campground was quiet and people were very nice. We were in a tent so unfortunately had to experience the gross bathrooms. There was at least toilet paper- but there was standing water in a gutter right behind the toilets that was just fungating back there. And while it says don’t bring firewood clearly on the site- there’s no where close to buy firewood. We had to drive all the way back to 77 about half hour to get some. Probably not a place I would ever make the effort to go to again.

Policies & Rules
Arrival & departure
- Reservations must be made at least 4 days in advance; late campsites are first-come, first-served.
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
