This was a beautiful place, perfect for unwinding and getting away from the hustle and bustle of the city. I enjoyed reading by the river while my husband did some fishing. The bed was comfortable and the tent was just the right size. Unfortunately, there was a fire ban and so we couldn’t start up a fire but we made the most of it. Overall, this was a perfect getaway!

Great little getaway. Easy to get to. Clean and an excellent campground right on the river.It could use a step up onto the tent platform.Occasionally disturbed by large trucks on the nearby road. Otherwise a great little getaway. Fishing was decent for little brown trout and Brook trout. Water was fast.
