This is a small, relaxing campground. Camp host was helpful and friendly. Fellow campers were also. Some nice hiking trails. The observation decks are especially nice. The best part though, was watching the barges on the Ohio river. We can’t wait to go back.

Beautiful campground for fall camping. Views of the Ohio river are spectacular. The 'covered bridge scenic byway" is worth exploring.

Beautiful campground...small, quiet. Is hard to make reservations, or get ahold of anyone, and if there is a mixup, you are sol.

Site was a little small for our 20 ft camper and steep, had to let front jack all the way down to get almost level, had to block the main road while un-hooking and hooking up. Nice campground would stay again but not the same site

Beautiful, quiet, peaceful, relaxing. It's a wonderful place to just be. The river, the barge traffic, the trains, all these add to the enjoyment of a very wonderful campground. It's plain and simple, no frills. Just what we like.
