We stayed here for a few months on a work contract and were very happy.

It's easy to find, get into, and get out of.

There are many beautiful mature trees.

The sites are all gravel, pretty level, and they have a decent amount of space between them.

Each site has a fire pit and picnic table.

There is an excellent playground facility available for young persons and those adults feeling froggy.

There is road noise, but it is tolerable.

It is surrounded by farm fields, a pond, and an access road that runs next to the highway.

There are two bathrooms for guests that appear to be wide, open, and accessible, but if you look at the photo the bar adjacent to the commode may have been installed in a spot that could make it difficult for some people to use.

There is a large shower in each bathroom with a detachable shower head. The bathrooms and showers are very clean and nicely maintained, and the water pressure is great.

Again access is wide and open, so if you have a device to help you ambulate it should be relatively easy to get in and out of.

There is one washer and one dryer, both are coin operated. The dryer is a little sluggish.

There are several lovely common areas including a large sheltered spot for people to gather that has a fire pit and grill that can fit a decent sized group.

There are mailboxes and a place for packages if you need to receive mail.

There is a pond with a dock where you can see water birds and turtles! And I didn't see any frogs but I heard them!

River access is within walking distance, and it has ample parking if you're bringing a boat.

The campground has and rents canoes and kayaks.

Be advised- if you're coming during certain times of the year when it rains frequently some of the sites can get boggy. It usually subsides quickly though.

We found the staff friendly and accommodating, and though not always on site, Tina, one of the owners, is very prompt in responding if you need anything.

They are very good at dealing with disruptive guests.

Overall we truly enjoyed our time at this campground and we give it our resounding endorsement.

The only thing I might wish for is a dog park, but the grounds have several poop-baggy stations and trash bins, and there are many nice flat spots for walks.

Happy travels!
