River Road Park

This campground is located at the southern side of Clearwater lake on the Black River. We were in spot R1 which apparently stands for remote. Electric was available and water was within 50 ft or so. Vault style toilet house a short walk away. R spots were spaced out very well. The other side of the campground was all back in spots which some have electric / water available. Very nice and quiet area with essentials nearby. Would go again. 

Great Rural Campground 

The campsite has a lot of great spots. It's really close to the water and a beautiful area. There is a lot of traffic that comes through from people going to the lake. It was very noisy from loud vehicles and not very relaxing. We packed up and left after one night.
