Little Bear Island Campground sits on an actual island surrounded by the Little Sandy River, accessible by both boat and a dirt road that can become muddy during wet conditions. The private campground accommodates RVs up to 45 feet with electric and water hookups, plus amenities like a dump station and firewood sales.
Reviewers highlight the fishing opportunities, with one camper noting they "fished all day and night" and enjoyed a catfish fry with their catch. The island setting provides mountain views and differs from typical RV park layouts. However, road access requires caution during poor weather conditions, and some visitors find the nightly rates of $35-$45 steep for the available facilities. The campground works well for anglers and families with pets seeking river access, though those wanting diverse activities beyond fishing may find options limited.
