Riverview has a mowed, semi-shaded to shaded sites (42 electric). This is the preferred campground for RVs.
A great camping place with many trails to walk/hike. It's family friendly and I found people to be respectful and friendly. I will definitely go back
I've hiked and camped here and have had wonderful experiences each time. The facilities are excellent with easy access to showers, sinks, and outlets. Spigots are available throughout the sites and people were mindful of others for a quieter campground experience. I noticed there was a calendar for events pinned up and thought that was a great opportunity for people to get involved with staff and the wildlife/landscape.
Hiking is plentiful and the state park boasts a number of routes. Many of the paths are paved or gravel, but there are longer paths that go deeper into the thicket near the river itself. Paths are inclusive for automotives, horses, people, bicycles, etc. Canoe campgrounds were also available which was cool. The map was pretty chaotic so a more accessible version would be nice. That said we were able to navigate to where we wanted to and staff were helpful in providing support. An unexpected surprise was the number of bugs on a longer route we hiked. Be mindful and wear layers, bug spray, etc. The end of our hike was miserable given the number of mosquitos and gnats that were attacking us (not much can be done to control this, but it was the worst I've ever experienced). The fire tower was fantastic and was easily one of the top highlights. I highly recommend checking it out.
Overall, I've had great experiences here. 5 stars!
Beautiful park! The night sky is filled with stars and the campgrounds are peaceful. The trail along the river is a nice, serene walk and the overall vibe of the park is relaxing.
My friends and I had a great time camping here and it's a perfect place for a weekend getaway.
