Open Camping Next to River

This campground is not for those looking for silence and solitude. All the sites are very open and run along the multi-use trail. People are constantly walking, running, and biking by. It is nice if you’re a social camper, we got to talk to many people and also got to enjoy a nearby camper playing his violin as the sun was setting. The river is beautiful and it’s nice being so close to cool historical stuff. The one thing we had to complain about were the bathrooms. When we got there, they were okay, but by the 3rd night they were really gross. We were at the site next to them and could smell them. Not pleasant. Also you have to park on the road and carry all your stuff across a bridge and down the path to your site. Could be a very far walk. All in all, we would return, just at a site further from the pit toilets.
