Family comes from Des Moines every year to rent this cabin for a week. Great campfire and sits right by the river. Peaceful setting.

Walk up sites only so get there at least Thursday for site. Clean restrooms and showers, gravel sites fairly level. Many sites have shade. We paid $20 for electric & water.
