This is a great campground to experience the Mulberry River. One campsite has hookups. The rest are primitive. The bath house is not well maintained.

Nice lil spot. River was way up!! Very peaceful. Has one shower stall, water warms up quick for having to press it continuously. $15 to camp, $5 day use.

Gorgeous area, beautiful hiking trails, the most wonderful people in the world. Friendliest campsite I have ever been to. Nice spacing between sites.

Cool spot for swimming or putting kayaks in! The campsites were nice, but the bathroom was disgusting. This was much worse than the normal amount of gross for a camp bathroom, it had clearly been vandalized and not cleaned up. Also no cell service for people who might want that

Great place to camp go kayaking and canoeing swimming. I grew up here and was back home for a visit. Good memories as a child growing up here and every time I visit

This definitely looks like a great place to pull in and camp if you were wanting to just rough it and chill. Other than that it doesn't appear to really be kept up, and the restrooms were pretty rough. I would give the campgrounds a 3 🌟. The trail out of the camp ground to Spy rock is about 9 miles round trip, and I rate it a 5 🌟.

My family had a great time here. We had 2 adults, one child, and two dogs. Each camping area was good size with enough buffer between each site. The other campers were great. We were able to leave our tent to go to another area for hiking. The adult male of our group did say the men's bathroom was disgusting, I didn't see it, so I don't know what he considers disgusting for a camp site. Thats the only reason for the 4 out of 5.

It was a really nice place to camp and swim. We started the trail from the campsite and about 2 miles in, the were some kind of bees or something on the trail, got stung 5 or 6 times. Very aggressive stinging insects. Besides that, it was a great place to visit.
