Extremely clean and well maintained! The nearby lake was fun for fishing with the kids, and close enough to town that a quick trip for cell service or forgotten foods is easy enough.

Really nice campground! Free, hot showers which is amazing. Camp host was super nice. Lots of wasps but they just sniffed around our food and otherwise left us alone. Alcohol is not permitted which, I’m sure, helps with how quiet and peaceful it was. We really enjoyed our one night here and would stay again.

Great location for access to Riw River bike trail.
Quiet campground, but it was end of season.
Spacious sites.

Beautiful park and large spacious campsites. We camped here in a travel trailer in order to ride the row river bike trail. We drove to the Mosby Creek Trailhead which was close to the park and had a nice trailhead with plenty of parking. The campground was winding down for the year but it was very clean and felt very safe. Lots of grass and room for kids to run and play.

The road noise was so loud that it was impossible to get any sleep. I felt like we were in the worst camping spot I have ever been in because every night the road noise sounded like jet planes. (5D) Also the bathrooms were so far away from the site and frequently out of toilet paper and no soap provided so bring your own. So I will not be returning to this site again.

The park is nice with flush toilets and showers. Bike trails are nearby, but they did not have maps to the covered bridges and since it was a holiday weekend the chamber of commerce was not open. Cell service was spotty, or the map on my phone would have worked.

Beautiful campground, right on the river and the reservoir. Flat trails for walking/biking, and excessively clean bathrooms. Plus, a playground for the little ones! It had everything we could have wanted and more.

Overall clean park. The only issue we had was that you have to watch everywhere you go for poison oak. There were poison oak bushes browning in our site. Other than that, it was a nice place.
