The campground has large spots in the primitive areas, but need to be marked off a lil better. Seems that all spots in primitive have electric to them as well, you just need to pay the extra price. We were in area G, and had a great view of the river. Everyone there was very nice, and welcoming. We even made friends with a woman and her family next to us. The bathroom/showers were nice and clean, and decorated very cute. The entrance to the women's bathroom has an area with things to purchase, and we did spend $20.00 there. They had TRR pins, and stickers, some hand made jewelry, and TRR t-shirts. I really wish, that there were steps, or a path to the bathrooms, instead of the large hill you need to climb to get there. All in all, we really enjoyed our weekend there, and plan to return.

Excellent place to stay! Camp spots are really big. Everyone is friendly and it is very quiet. Would recommend everyone to stay here. Only bad thing is no ice and no camp store. Town was close so it wasn’t that big of an inconvenience

I recently stayed at this campground while bicycling through the area. It was amazing. Lots of room, beautiful river and well kept facilities. Very quiet. Looked like a great place for fishing and other water activities. The hosts were extremely helpful. I would stay here again if I come back to the area.

The campground is very well kept. Everyone visiting is so humble. The bathrooms are kept clean and stocked. Had a chance of running into the owner and she was very nice and answered any questions we had. There is a little area for the kids to swim as well as the playground at the campground. Will definitely be visiting again. They have a small communal stand by the bathrooms with some veggies and small business items for sale.

This place has been amazing as usual. From the time we got here and thus far, it has been amazing. Quiet, relaxing, friendly, clean and well maintained. When it is full, you don't have a lot of noise.
