We loved the spot! Tons of cool rocks by the river. We checked in with the owner and he pointed us to the spot we would camp. That’s the only time we ever saw him so plenty of privacy. The camp sites are spread out well also. I couldn’t hear any of the other campers.

Camping with family
My kids had so much fun in the river . My husband and I loved that it was so peaceful. It was just enough natural. Bathrooms are kept clean. No doors on bathroom ( not sure why )They have wifi . If you don't like bugs ,camping is not for you . Overall family friendly. Would recommend. Owners are chill and welcoming. Not hard to find. Affordable.Easy access to main highway. Local restaurants are a plus . Forgot something you need ? Walmart is a short drive away . We will be visiting again soon .

Good and bad
We have mixed feelings about our stay. We liked our site on the river, but the rest of the campground needs a lot of improvements. The bathrooms were filthy and falling apart. The swimming pool was a nice surprise, but the fence around it is unsecured causing a huge risk for small children. If you only care about your actual site, I would recommend this campground.

Hard pass
We didn't even stay or ask for our money back. It was basically like you were camping in the backyard of someone's house with broken down cars and trash everywhere.

Lots of other campers so definitely a great option for those of us who do not like being alone in the woods. 🤗 Also a beautiful little river ran right beside our campsite and was perfect for our kidos to wade and splash around in. We found a few pieces of amethyst and lots of quartz! Campsites were clean and nicely spaced out so we were not bothered by noise or anything else going on around us. A major plus was that there was a bath house with toilets and showers. Hot water too! Will definitely be coming back.
