My family and friends been camping here for years... never a dull moment. So much fun the memories are endless... The high light is the rock you can jump from...

Terrible experience, I understand this is a cheap campground but it was really ghetto. Bathrooms were absolutely disgusting and the camp host didn’t do anything to clean them. Camp host is a 20 year old kid who went on joyrides on his golf cart. Theres a noise restriction that starts at 10pm and he didn’t enforce any of that, meanwhile our neighbors were blasting music till 4 am. He didn’t even check to see if we paid for out spot and we didn’t even need to check in. He also didn’t clean the bathrooms whatsoever, he has a brand new broom on his golf cart and that didn’t get used at all. His girlfriend also took the golf cart on joyrides around the campground loop with the toddler they have pretty fast. He did go into the bathrooms but didn’t clean them. Pretty bad experience and I wouldn’t recommend coming here

River access is beautiful, but the camp host is horrible. He hardly did his job cleaning the restrooms but yet constantly drives around looking for something to say and women to talk to. I just hope all the money he was charging for early access was not getting pocketed. The old host, who was way better, never charged for getting there an hour early.

Only good thing about this campground is the river access. Pit toilets are under maintained- if you think porta pottys are bad, imagine 8x the volume baking in a tank for months on end. Wind carries the stench to neighboring sites. Camp host is nosey- does everything but his job. Walks around flashing his headlamp into everyone's site multiple times a night, yet when quiet hours came at 10pm, he ignored the people playing loud music so he could sit at a campsite with two extremely drunk women who were alone. Beyond that, there were campsites that were in clear need of repair- picnic tables that were broken, which have seemingly been a problem from a long time, given there's a review about it months ago. Seems like the camp host makes his rounds looking with women to flirt with instead of making the campground better for it's guests. Would not return here again, given the amount of options in the area.

Terrible spot... We couldn't even sit at the picnic table. I spoke with the groundskeeper and showed him the pics and he said he wasn't authorized to fix anything without approval. He also said that he knows things need to be repaired at the campground but can't do anything until the say-so is yes... I don't blame this guy, it's not his fault... The place is outright disappointing... Better off at Headquarters...
