    Campground is nice and clean, the bath house was a lil dated and could use some updating. The staff were incredible, friendly and very helpful and accommodating. There’s a small creek that flows in the back campsites and a scenic train the rides right beside the campground twice a day. We will definitely return for another float down the river.
