Cool river, odd location

We stayed here for an extended weekend with our 20ft trailer. The dirt/gravel road down to the string of campsites was not very well maintained and quite steep. The campsites themselves were fine. Walking distance to the river and tree/brush separation between sites. River is fun to explore but not a place where you would leave your children unattended. Lots of huge granite boulders to climb up (or fall off). Area is known to have the occasional bear.

What put me off from this place was the state of their bathrooms and showers. Think crumbling concrete walls, rotting wood and peeling paint. This was more of a spider-hotel than a working bathroom. Spooooky! Several other choices of campgrounds in the area near other parts of the river or lakes further up.
