One of our favorite camping spots. Very nice restrooms and showers. It is also a very good place to camp if you want to go tubing on the river because you are able to end your tubing at the camp ground without having to worry about driving. The green belt trail also starts here which is an amazing trail to spend the day on.

Campsite is very nice with mature trees and well kept. Shower & bathrooms are clean. Park attendant takes her responsibility a bit too serious and very unfriendly. Would like to camp there again but probably won't.

I love this place, it's newly discovered to my family and it was an incredible find. So peaceful and serene. It's very well maintained and the covered bridge is amazing.

It's a great park. There are trails, natural habitat, places to camp, and it's on the Shell Rock River and handy for tubers and kayakers to get on to or off the river.
