My absolute favorite place to go camping. Love the small feeling of the campground. Not like some places where I’ve been where there are 500 campsites. Being along the river and watching the water flow by and watching the wildlife. My only issue is the same at ALL campgrounds are people bringing their noisy dogs. Some dogs are great but it seems like every camper that I stay beside has that one barking noisy dog. I work hard and when we go camping it’s for the peace and quiet. But that never seems to be the case. Along with every campground! We leave our dog at home with a house sitter so we do not bother anyone else. RESPECT!

This is a nice quiet place to relax and enjoy the river. The level terrain and paved walking /biking trails are nice. There is very limited cellular service available.

Park is nice. Pit toilet was clean. The men's toilet paper dispenser wasn't locked. Causing it to flop open when getting toilet paper. Grass and stick debris on all of the pads. Hope the shower house gets fixed soon.

This is a favorite campground for us. We love being on the Ohio River, hearing and seeing the barges and trains across the river. Very small, quiet, beautiful. Close to Marietta, which is a fun town to visit. We also enjoy taking the Sisterville ferry across the river.

- 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.
