This campground was great! The host was nice and did his job. I saw some complaints about the bathrooms stinking, but if everyone followed the rules it wouldn’t be that bad. You’re supposed to close the toilet lid and keep the door closed, but no one seems to be able to follow that. The spots were clean and kept well! We had a great time and will definitely be returning.

Really pretty, easy access to the river and campsites felt secluded even though they are close together. We stayed in campsite 34. The bathrooms were really not great. They had no toilet paper, overflowing with garbage and didn’t seem to be serviced at all throughout our stay.

This was a really nice campground with lots of trees for shade and for fairly good privacy. Great trees for hammocks etc. The trailer sites are a bit tricky to get into with the bigger rigs. But overall, a great experience and very well maintained.

The best campground in the area by far our favorite site of all of them is the loop B 42 it's secluded so you almost feel like your camping alone it's close to the water bit far from the bathrooms so there is a trade off for the seclusion. They also have great river access and have built up retaining walls to provide little wading pools for your whole family to play in. I would suggest bringing go...

I would suggest bringing good water shoes because it's pretty rocky in there. It's super close to pine view reservoir
