Campground was fantastic for those who like watching the river and towboats go by.
Local hiking trails were a bit overgrown, had some bigger trees down, and not marked very well.

Leith run was a perfect campground for a place to wind down and relax. Clean nothing crazy going and quiet. Visited the castle in Marietta and took a ride on a river boat. Would visit again.

Great out of the way kind of place. Bring what you need with you because there isn't much around that's quick. Especially firewood. However, Saint Mary's is 15 minutes away for those forgotten items and Marietta is twice that distance. The site (#6) was a bit muddy and the approach was in a dog leg which made backing a bit tricky. Bathrooms were cleaned everyday and the facilities were neat and orderly. Over all we very much enjoyed our stay and have plans to return on a regular basis.

The campground host lady was very nice! We didn't realize there wouldn't be garbage cans at the pavilion. Luckily, we were close to the park and were able to get garbage bags and tape to the posts. But it would be good to know that in advance. But it was easy to just throw our bags in the dumpster. Otherwise, the space was good and everyone had a nice time!

We stayed in a tent at site 20. The entire place was clean, the bathhouse was well stocked, the site was well taken care of and it was a very peaceful weekend. We just wish firewood would be sold there.

We love that it's small and quiet. We went to The Jug for ice cream. Watched boats on the river.
