Loved it

Place was gorgeous! Only 8 camp sites, quit and rustic. Clean fire pit and site. We also had the best camp neighbors ever.

Secluded and Nice

Great state forest campground. Eight sites with six right on the river. Room for two vehicles per site. Level for tents and plenty of good trees for hammocks. Right next to a canoe/kayak launch. Hand pump for water. Separate men and women outhouses. Road is a bit loud during the night but not too bad.
