The staff was friendly, but the campground was really run down. It has a lot of potential, nice view of the mountains, but that's about where it ends. We were told that they didn't hold sites (but they guaranteed a reservation), but if we got there early enough, we would really like being near the river. Well, my cousin got to the campground first, he said that the 4 river sites were reserved - no one on the sites, so that's how we ended up where we were. On the right side of our camper, there was glass from a busted window in the grass, so had to keep the kids away from that. Our site had no grass (or gravel would have been nice) in front of it, so I had to go spend $80 on a mat so the kids wouldn't bring dirt in the camper. The first night we camped there, we had a campfire. The next day we were going to start another fire, and we discovered a crack/meth pipe in the pit, so someone during the overnight hours had visited our site and left that treat. The water slide, which looks cool on the website, had water at the bottom of the slide. My youngest son went down it the first time, and turned his wrist, which we learned yesterday that it is fractured (we thought he sprained it), so now he is in a cast. We did the tubing, which they did say the water was down, but as much walking as we did, they should have just suggested we not do it until the water was back up. Terrible experience here, not sure how it has such great reviews, but I guess everyone has different expectations. We tried to make the best of it since we had already paid, but it won't happen again. It looks more like a run down trailer park. It does have a lot of potential, but definitely disappointing.

I've modified my posting today with the pictures that disappeared from my original posting with the meth/crack pipe that we found in our fire pit - 4/12/2019
