Had a great weekend, was very quiet. Enjoyed the nice weather and our river views. Bathrooms were cleaned I believe multiple times a day which was nice.

Spent a few days in site 21, this is the third time we have camped at Bumpus Mills, second time in this site. This is the largest and most private site in the small park and is well shaded. Electric was stable and water pressure was ok. Great place to kayak and unwind, the camp host is friendly and has been there at least four seasons. It's a smaller COE campground but is our favorite due to the quietness and the close proximately to the lake. We camped in a 37' fifth wheel, due to the narrow roads in the loop and getting there I wouldn't recommend anything larger.
