Lots of shade. Possible to hammock in the trees. Excellent place for charcoal grilling and wood fire. Close to the river. Very pleasant. Close to bathrooms but not too close. Bathrooms well maintained.

We were at group site A. The pavilion was great and lots of parking. The cleanest outhouses I have ever been in. The only problem we had was 1/3 of the cement under pavilion turned into a HUGE puddle in the rain. The rain ran down the side walk connected to the cement slab and puddled under the pavilion on the S end.

Great campsite (Group B). Close to river access, bathroom, and garbage. Shady table area. I wish it were comparable to group site A in size and had tables under the trees. The host, Leah, greeted us and let us know she's available. I'd definitely come back and try to rent Group A.

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • 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.
