Hidden Gem on the River!
LOVED Sycamore Springs! Allen has a true hidden gem. He cares for his land and it shows! The river campsite we stayed on was clean and all alone. not having water or a toilet was not a problem at all. We saw so many stars and lucky enough to see a meteor shower! The river was beautiful and amazing to wake up too. There is plenty of wildlife to see and hear. We saw Bald Eagles, Blue Herons many other birds, otters, and lots of fish jumping out of the water. We tried to fish but the river is to shallow. We only caught some suckers. Some other people (on a kayak) caught a small mouth bass. Curing the day there will be a lot of kayakers and boats cruising down the river and able to see your campsite but everyone is nice and don't stay long. The animals are loud at night and are not scared to come up to your tent. We had what I believe to be a raccoon sniff around out tent each night but we just scared it away and it wouldn't return. We did hear a small pack of coyotes behind the woods from us. So, to make sure put away all your food in a sealed bin or in your car at night. There is one small area that is level and soft for tents. We loved sitting on the bank watching the birds fly around.There is a general store 5 mins down the road with camping essentials if need be. Allen is super nice and quick to respond to our questions. Cell phone reception is spotty, go to the field or by the river for service but we didn't care. We will be returning again.

This campsite was amazing! The river is gorgeous and full of so many birds. It is very spacious and there is a nice firepit and picnic table. The check-in and check-out times are reversed on their page, just FYI, but they accommodated us anyways. I would definitely stay here again!
