Beautiful, quiet little camp ground. The river is perfect for sticking your feet in or swimming. Highly recommend, will be returning.

Nothing between sites to add privacy, some barely had enough non-parking spot large enough for a tent. A good 1/3 of the sites were full sun. The campfire rings were not buried deep enough- ours was a good 2.5' out of the ground and provided no warmth or ambiance. The men's bathroom would lock accidentally, so everyone was using one half of the vault toilet. Trash along the river. RVs camping overnight in the day use area next to the camp "host" who I saw do nothing about noise, the day use RV staying overnight, the trash, or the toilet. Would not recommend.

Poorly run, no privacy between sites, lots of which barely have room for a tent - they used most of each site for a long parking spot. Several sites would be full sun all day as well. The bathroom kept locking so everyone was half the vault toilet. Camp hosts didn't do much/anything, including not cleaning up the trash at the river, or the RV staying overnight in the day use area. Firepits were no sunk into the ground far enough.

Great location - you can play in the river at the campsite or nearby day use areas, also a 20 minute drive to the beach. Camp hosts were lovely, very kind and kept the bathrooms and campground clean. We had a wonderful time relaxing and playing! Will definitely return!

- 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.
