Sweet little spot

This is our second time here. This is our little spot when we just don’t want to be in the wilderness. There is an access to the river and few steps away from an old small town feel. Lots of local shops and bars right outside the campsite. We spent one afternoon just strolling on the strip and checking out stores. The campground is small. Some sites are sunny and has no shade at all but some are cool and shady. Also, Chris, who manages the site is pretty awesome and nice.
