Great quiet place

Stayed here one night. Place was quiet! Of course, there was two really good sites that had been taken over by “long stayers” who were out and about late at night. Well water pump and bathrooms. Has grill and fire pit, but we’re currently under a burn ban. We stayed within 50 yards of the water and was indulging in the river noise to destress to.

Great clean place.

Stunning river views and small with only 11 sites that are first come first served. Refurbished a few years ago. This is my go to for during the week over nighters as it’s never been full. Last year I went in June for a solo night and I had the place to myself. Hiking nearby with tabletop rock and about 25 miles of trail right across the road. Only issue I have found is the logging trucks run all night.
