      Great spot!

      We were just passing through and stayed for a night. We had sewer, water, and electric hookup. A nice dog park, and even found some 4 leaf clovers!

      Nice primitive campsite in loop 1

      Bathrooms were clean but dated. Water spigots were well spaced. Ticks were very bad. Family sites were spacious but laid out like 2 separate sites. Would have been nice to have both tables together. Tent pads were advertised but non-existent.

      Overpriced/Bad customer service/uniformed staff

      I hate this place and will never go back. I did primitive tent camping for 2 nights with my 5 kids and a 5 mile float in a raft. It was over $500. The raft, by design, took on several inches of water so we couldn’t keep anything dry. Then, they didn’t have a pick up bus. We had to walk down the highway back to the office after floating for 6 hours and then waiting for an hour and even calling twice. The kids behind the counter don’t have a clue what is going on and are completely unapologetic when they mess everything up (our reservations, the float instructions, the pick up bus…). They made zero effort to make anything right and the counter girl even laughed at me for being upset. When I got mad and asked to speak to someone who knows how a business is supposed to operate she called security to throw my son and I out. We left early, ate the money and paid a different campsite down the street where the staff are friendly and helpful.

      Thanks Charles

      We stayed here for a quick weekend getaway trip and it was fantastic. All the sites are gravel so when we had a few rain showers it did not cause a muddy mess for our campfire evenings. The owner was super nice and very communicative ensuring we had everything we needed. He delivered firewood we purchased to our tent while we were at the park and, he even stayed up past midnight to see us in as we drove up from Oklahoma. New camp store, nice clean bathrooms, new showers, and a quiet stay with amazing star gazing. Lastly the campground is 5 minutes to the river to fish. Would highly recommend.

      Close to lake, little shade

      This is a great RV resort close to the water but with very little shade. It is right across the street from Tera Miranda that has a cool restaurant on the water though. There are park models and group houses as well as RV pads. Nice central location on Monkey Island.

      Cool hang out area

      This isn’t my typical style of campground because this is more of a parking lot style camping. However, they have a really cool hang out area, a clear creek to play in, and a waterfall area to explore. I’d you are passing through, this is a great place to stop and rest for the night!

      This is NOT a 5 star resort

      The most important thing I can tell you is the bathrooms smell like sewage and are dirty. I came to stay because I read how amazing it was. It is not. It’s kind of like staying in a giant parking lot. One side has trees the other a road. It was easy to get to the greenway and ride. However there is so much construction that it is better to create your own ride. So if you don’t mind a gross bathroom or you have an RV with one then it’s worth it. The people were very nice and helpful.

      Party Paradise

      This resort caters to the 20-something party crowd. If you’re in that demo, you’ll love it, if you’re not, you won’t. Camp store is nice, but campsites can be lacking.

      Ok (if u cant get a Prairie Springs spot)

      Its parking lot-type RV sites, but in a fairly narrow valley between historically & naturally interesting wooded trails. The birdsong this spring at dawn & dusk coming from both sides was tremendous. Showers (3) & WC (3) & laundry (3 washers & dryers) with a sort of library addition.

      Twin Bridges state park

      This is a nice campground and most of the sites are huge. And some of them have a nice view of the river. They have full hookups and pretty good signal. The bathrooms are not the best but they have really nice playground for the kids. I would come back and camp here again.

      SUV Camping

      I have a mostly stock 4Runner. We were able to drive it around on a lot of very light off-road trails. There were many more intense off-road options and challenges though. They have RV hookups there and plenty of places to park and vehicle-camp or to set up a tent. Trails were $35 a day and camping was $15 per person per night.

      Uninformed but would return.

      Nobody answered the phone or called back before I came but it worked out ok. Firewood costs 5 dollars. Camping is 20 per car or 4 people. The snack hut was closed. Wasnt told of any trails rentals or much of anything. It was camping

      When the River rises

      We pulled in several hours early and were allowed to go immediately to our campsite, #121.  The camp hosts were extremely nice.  It was a back-in, across the road from the river, and next door to the bathrooms.  The campsites around us were electrical only, but it just so happens that the water for our area was at site 121.  This was a very shady site.  It rained off and on all afternoon and evening.  That didn't keep us from enjoying the beautiful Roaring River and pointing out all the trout visible in its waters.  This is a fisherman's heaven.

      While there is much to do at Roaring River, for us it was cut super short.  The National WX service issued flood warnings, so at 10:15pm our camp host knocked on our door and said the Park Ranger advised us to leave.  Even with the light rain, this particular site was already full of puddles.  So we obediently packed up, with water up to our ankles as we headed for high ground.  As the following day's forecast continued with rain and predictions of flood we bailed and headed for a different campground.  The rest rooms were clean and there were plenty of individual showers, but we did not have a chance to check them out.

      Nice enough

      Clean and well maintained KOA. Friendly personnel. Shaded, pull thru sites as well as back-ins, cabins, and tent sites. Sites are very level with crushed stone pads. Good water pressure. Lots of grass. Patio sites are available. Internet is poor, as typical of most RV parks. Cable tv with about 30 channels. Good stopover park.
