When we arrived, we were informed that there was NO WATER available at the campground due to "The well running dry". It is unacceptable that we were not informed prior to our arrival.

The campsites #22 & 23 have been switched on the website. We reserved #23, which used to be #22 on the website. When we arrived at the campsite, #22 was where it has always been and we had to be out in the sun in 23. Please fix the website to show the actual location of #22 being on the left hand side of the two. Thanks.

Very peaceful and quiet. Make sure to bring lots of bug spray. If you like the water, go check out Causy, it is a fun place.

Large campsite with some trees and easy access to the river, which was good and bad. It was lovely to listen to and go put my feet in, but ALL DAY LONG people came traipsing through our site. Entire families taking tubes down to the river through our site. Some people apologized, but kept on going. Most just ignored us and walked right through. That was more than a little irritating. We noticed the people in the site next to ours put orange cones up so people couldn't access the river from their site.
Besides that, you hear road noise, but the people in the campground were quiet. The camp host was nice, the bathrooms were clean, but our site hadn't been cleaned before we got there.

Easily fit 4 two-person tents. This campground wasn’t close to others. We had 6 people and 2 dogs and fit very comfortably. Causey reservoir is very close! Will definitely be back

While the campsite we reserved was good, the area for the tent was right next to the neighboring campsite. The vault toilets weren't kept that clean the entire time we were there. There was no sign of a camp host, which I think if there had been, they would have enforced the quite time. The place was loud from other campers running generators, partying, laughing, and listening to loud music past midnight every night we were there. It was pretty obvious there was a large group that reserved multiple spots next to and across from each other as they kept walking back and forth partying. Again, no sign of the camp host the entire time we were there. The gate locking at 10pm we can't confirm, we made sure we were in the campground before then since we didn't want to chance it. Our campsite was a ways from the entrance, but you could hear the cars driving down the road. The traffic seemed to be pretty constant all through the night as well.

First time at that site, great access to the river. Went during the week, very quiet, no cell phone service, just drive down the road a few miles and you can get service. Bring a hummingbird feeder and you'll have hours of enjoyment watching them.
