Strangers
We were staying right in front of the river which was a beautiful view. Showers have great water pressure and easy to get hot water when needed. Only problem was the homeless people using the bathrooms. I had collected twigs and some random guy came out of the woods freaking me out. I had issues staying by my tent by myself while my partner was out but having a dog was a plus. I would be careful with leaving stuff out because random things would happen at night. People would drive by our site multiple times throughout the day, it made us uneasy. The host was very nice and attentive but we are right next to a busy highway with a casino right around the corner so like I said, random things would happen. Very little to no shade for the tents in front of the river, definitely recommend staying at the other side of the road for tents.
Nice Campround on the River
Campground with electric only. Our site did not have shade so it got pretty warm. Bathrooms were a decent walk from us but a great cheap stay as we were passing through.

Pretty spot, but one big issue
Miller River is a good urban campground, as it is tucked away from the city but still within 5 minutes of downtown. Its location on the river is very nice, and the tent sites are set apart from the RV area, which I appreciated. Upon check-in, the workers were friendly and helpful. The bathrooms are clean and fine. And it is inexpensive, at about$15 a night for a tent site. Now to the negatives. Unfortunately, most of what we found negative is out of the control of the campground itself; it's simply the location. Ambient noise includes auto traffic of speeding cars coming over the nearby highway bridge, and loud semi-trucks that are air-braking as they come into town. Also, multiple trains rumbled by the campground across the river, many blowing their horns repeatedly as they passed at all hours of the night. Finally, and somewhat hilariously, there is a greyhound dog racetrack within a few hundred feet of the tent sites. It's mostly unnoticeable until you hear the dogs. When we stayed there the dogs were let out early in the morning, around 7 am, into a big open fenced area. They all barked and whined and yelped together, a giant pack of hounds disturbing our sleep after a night of the aforementioned noise. Overall, this campground could be a good choice if noise does not bother you much, or if you have good earplugs. Avoid it probably if you are sensitive to noise or a light sleeper.
