A very nice family campground

We camped here for two nights for our first family camping adventure — two adults and two kids ages 5 and 7. The campground was very clean and well organized, and the sites were relatively private. There were some camp sites right on the river, but, if you’re looking for shade or have kids, I’d suggest staying away from the sites on the river.

The river is great for exploring! But it’s extremely cold, swift, shallow, so it’s not ideal for swimming.

A couple of important things to know: 1) except for one small bath area, there were porta potties throughout the campground; 2) because it’s between two rivers (one is pretty swampy), it was very buggy; 3) the store was a good place to buy forgotten items, and they had coffee; 4) it’s a big campground and can get loud despite the quiet times.
