Camp sites are nice, some a little close together but nothing major. There are trains that run through the recreation area and blow their horn, so if you dont want it to be too loud just make sure to look at the site map and choose one further from the tracks as it wasn't too bad this time around. (Been many times) Bathrooms are very all very clean!

*TRAIN NOISE WARNING* Overall campground was great, bathrooms were super clean, easy to access, and anne who was the camp host was extremely kind. We got to the campground around 9pm and she greeted us and directed us on how to get to our site. However, we read the reviews and still were not prepared for how LOUD the trains were. I am a deep sleeper and did not think it would be a problem. It genuinely sounds like you are about to be ran over. We bought Earplugs after waking up every 2 hours the first night and would say its a must if you plan to tent camp as we did. Overall campground is great but the trains really damaged our experience unfortunately. Would recommend for cleanliness but warn visitors to bring Earplugs.

It’s a lovely campground with very clean facilities. The shower house was spotless, and even the outhouse close to the campground was in great condition (we know because we sheltered inside it during 90 MPH wind gusts and torrential rain during our stay). Great access to the river if you have watercraft. It’s located in an isolated area down hilly, narrow, sometimes gravel roads. We love the isolation but it might not be everybody’s cup of tea. The only downside was the frequent railroad traffic. There’s a crossing right at the entrance to the campsite. The alarms go off and the train horns sound DOZENS of times during the day and night. If you’re a light sleeper be sure to bring earplugs.

Absolutely beautiful campground, wooded, birds singing everywhere, charming and helpful host! Some people might object to the train, which is definitely frequent and loud, but I liked it myself. I would highly recommend this place, and compliments to the host, Anne.
