Love Adams Fork! The camp host was wonderful, kind and responsive! Adams Fork is alongside the river and the sites are perfect for tent or RV camping. This weekend there were some who went overboard with their drinking and decided to not comply with no fires along with fighting with each other. That creates a bad experience for anyone nearby.
