An absolutely adorable stay

First things first, you can camp here. It is only set up for daily use. Besides that this place is ADORABLE! Great for kids and animals. Slots with picnic tables and fire rings. Views are to a gorgeous river view. A few of the defaults are the bathroom was atrocious. Second all slots are extremely close to Alpine road. Wonderful day spot, bummer we couldn’t stay the night!

Nice area by the river with picnic tables and bathrooms!

A nice developed spot right near the river and close tothe north mill campground. It has a quite a few picnic areas with concrete and metal fire rings along the riverside. This is a fee area and fills up quickly so try to get there before 2 especially on the weekends and holidays
