Beautiful, private, safe campsite. We enjoyed the quiet, the river trail, the proximity to Camp Sherman's well-stocked store. All-round great experience.

Nice Campground. Nice Host Riverside sites have a hiking trail that runs along side them so not much privacy

Though we were away from the river, the spaces are large and have a lot of privacy.
