Verbatim from guest reviews on Campspot ↗ (4 reviews, ★ 3.5). Not written or edited by us.

“Older, somewhat in need of maintenance, but a nice riverside location with plenty of shade. We appreciated having a place to stay while working our way home from a very long roadtrip.”

valerie P 3 · Oct 2026 · Campspot

“Great location for what we wanted to see and do. Lousy wifi. Tight and unlevel spot for our motorhome. Located next to busy highway, heard airbrakes most of the night. Rude campers that talked loud outside their campers until 12:30/1:00 am.”

K.L. 2 · Aug 2026 · Campspot

“The campground was quiet for relaxation yet provided activities for entertainment. We enjoyed the DJ/karaoke night while relaxing around the fire at our campsite. The BBQ food truck was a bonus for the weekend. We look forward to visiting again.”
