If you get the right campsite this place is great

This is a great place for the love of camping. Running water, quiet, and can be very private depending on the site.

Traditionally I camp out of my car. But this time I opten in for the 200meter walk in site and I pitched a tent. The site was very large with a firepit, bench, and picnic table. I also cant forget to mention right on the river.

There are pit toilets, spot for water, and some hiking trails.
