Our only comment is that we didn't see the host in the two days we were there. I think the campground is not as well run as it was in the past. The previous host had his mowing equipment and trimmers taken away so the maintenance was not up to him. I think that was a wrong decision.

I love everything about Leith Run campgrounds! The peaceful atmosphere along the river is exactly what I needed. Great neighborly campers. Everyone is so friendly. No noisy dogs and noisy people. Everyone is very respectful! When it’s quiet time it’s quiet time!!! Campgrounds are much cleaner this year under new management. Restrooms and shower house were cleaner than the past year. I just wish it wasn’t so hard to get into but I understand why. It books up fast!!!! Two thumbs up! 👍👍

This is a lovely campground, next to the Ohio river. facilities are excellent and very clean, we showered and used the bathrooms our entire stay. the camp hosts were friendly and excellent as well. RV campers very quiet at night and very friendly during the day. We had a wonderful 5 days!

Well-maintained facilities and grounds. This is a beautiful campground. Be aware that you are away from distractions. By that I mean there is no television available even with a good antenna. Cell access is limited to some access right down by the river. It looks like riding on a picocell in one of the houses on the other side of the river. We met some nice people who came down to the water to check email and make calls.
We are definitely going to be back at this tiny but mighty campground.
