Getting to the campsite late, the manager worked with me on getting a spot! John was super helpful and informative and answered any question I had.
The campground was very nice.... read more Some mechanical maintenance on the bathrooms wouldn't be a bad thing. Other than that, we set up a tent right next to the river. The people around were friendly, everything in town is within walking distance.
