River front camping.

These campgrounds have an amazing river right at your finger tips.

It should be noted the higher up sites are right on the road, and the ones closest to the river are by no means far enough to deafen the road noise.

Cell service- no T-Mobile Water- no water Toilets- long drop only no sink no lights. One men’s , one women’s.

No camp host or firewood available on week days.

The stars here are incredible. However if the breeze is up it’s gone chilling.

Park in the lot and walk to site. According to a camp host at lone rock, you can park and camp in your roof top tent in the lot for the same price. However, no trailers are allowed.

Nice get away spot

Went the week before Memorial Day '21 and found several spots available. Sites are small but with just me and my lab it was perfect. John the site manager was very friendly and not an uptight site manager. Had a nice little hike around the area. My lab loved being able to swim in river. I will make this place my go to place in the middle of the week to get away from the metro area.
