What Guests Are Saying

Cassidy Bridge Primitive Camp offers a spacious and relatively clean environment, making it great for group camping with ample room for trailers and tents. While there are some concerns about trash and the absence of picnic tables, the area is enjoyable for fishing and has a functional pit toilet. The site has some storm damage and an old gate lock, but overall, visitors express a desire to return, especially during warmer months.

We enjoy how beautiful the spot is and how private the spot is. We suggest bringing fishing gear and swimming gear because the river is always refreshing.
