Do not tent here.

Tenting areas are 10-15 feet from the road, so very noisy all night long. The road is 35mph, so it’s noisy.

Otherwise everything was nice. Plenty of amenities - showers, pools, hot tub, mini golf etc. staff were friendly as well.

Staying in an RV would be okay as they are further away from the road. It’s just unfortunate that the tenting spots (8-10 tents max) is so close to the road. It’s close enough that my tent would rustle with each car moving past.

I was fortunate enough to get the only flat tent space - all other tent sites are on a gentle lean.

Summary: nice spot, but don’t rent here. I would give it a 4 star review if I were staying in an RV, but need to put the warning out for others who tent

Great place. Riverside no sewer hookups but have dump station by where you check in. Perfect to check in dump if you stay on river side. Train goes by various times. Scenic country road beware of traffic going twice the limit (35 mph) friendly staff very helpfull

Good location on Hyway 2

This is a good campground just off Hyway 2 and on the river, some site are directly next to the river, however, we choose a site on the other side of the road due to the full hookup there. The campground has some Semi Permanent residents so we felt a little like we where intruding. The Campground had many amenities and things to do abound in the area.

Slightly ran down...

We stayed here for months before we were able to find a better spot. Best part of this park is the location next to the river. The amenities sorely needed updates and repairs. The staff was less than welcoming. I would never pay full price for this place again.
