It was a fine place to stop on the way to somewhere. But not really a destination in itself. It advertised as having multiple playgrounds which I did not find. We have kids and we’re looking g forward to camping near one of the playgrounds so the kids could play with others. Unfortunately the only one we found was a swing set and no other kids. We had fun away of course. The river is fun and the shade is very nice. The campsites seem to be well maintained.

This is a beautiful park in a heavily wooded area. Sites are clean and spacious. Most sites have a concrete pad, graveled patio with picnic table, grill and fire ring. Many sites are right along the river. There is a boat ramp for river access. There is also a small lake with a paved path surrounding it. Also there is a paved bike path which meanders through the woods. It is short but beautiful. Playground for the kiddos.

We come here all the time. Beautiful area. First time for Halloween 🎃 I will say this is must for people with small children. Great job to all the park host.

This park is absolutely beautiful! Our spot overlooked the river and had lots of privacy. If you want quiet serenity, this is the place you need to go. Some of the sites had full hookups, but ours only had electric and water, but they also have a dump station, laundry, bath houses, a boat ramp, lots of hiking, and beautiful scenery! We will definitely be back!
