Nice place to stay the night. Only thing negative is we could not find the box to put the money in. Maybe better to put it near the entrance

A 10, this is one of the most beautiful places we found.
Pool to swim, clean toilets, water supply, lots of places, no annoying people coming complain at 8pm to talk more quietly 🙈....
Perfect, we come back. Also thanks to the lady for the pool tip. It was very hot today and the swim was welcome

Great campsite with plenty of space for privacy and just far enough away from the highway to not get the noise and only $5 a night

Great site! You pay only $5 into the honesty box for a site. The campsite has flush toilets, fireplaces for BBQ and a lot of space. The river is nearby for swimming. With showers I would give 10/10.
