Features
Nice campground
This is a nice campground, our last visit I think everyone had a generator running. One morning a tree fell across the path from our site to the river
Beautiful site next to river
Went in early June. Pretty cold but very beautiful.
Lots of shade and fun hiking area
My husband and I love this campground. There are no services available and the drive in is very long on a dirt road that is dry and bumpy, but the camp ground is worth it. You are nestled in the trees with a river below - you can wade in the water and enjoy fishing as well.
