This was the noisiest experience I have ever had. Left halfway through because two nights of no sleep was all we could handle. The park hosts really should have done something about this, to be honest. The river was amazing, the hiking was amazing, I love this area, just hit this on a very bad weekend.

There was no mention of how incredibly small site #20 is on the website. We have a larger tent (Kingdom 6) and it wouldn't even fit in the space without touching the tiny fire pit. Also, our car barely fit in the parking spot. We ended up just driving 3 hours back to Portland. It was a huge waste of a day. The campgrounds itself is also pretty far down a side road into think wooded area. It didn't seem like a very pleasant place to stay unless you had one of the few large sites.
