We have found the campground to be relaxing and easy to move around. On one hand we like that it is smaller but on the other side you have to get your reservations in earlier if you are traveling with more than one camper.

We love it here - small and private, on the Ohio River, barges coming through and the sound of trains traveling across the river. Just beautiful!

It would be helpful if when a site is occupied as "first come first served", that it would show up on the website as soon as possible by camp host. We Love this campground and tell lots of folks about it.

Great campground, clean facilities. No host.
Major problem we encountered is that reservations are frequently not posted on the site posts and we found someone at our reserved spot.
