A beautiful campground with big well wooded sites.

Great place to get away, great centralized place to set up camp to go fishing at the river and other rivers

It was quiet for being close to a highway. Carp river was too shallow at spots to kayak, but it was July and we knew the water would be low. Still fun though, had to carry the kayaks over some downed trees too.

Clean and very quiet. The camp host was very nice and helpful.

Our overall impression was disappointing. Although the campsites were private and well-designed for dispersed camping, the Carp River itself is a rather ugly brown due to the tannins in the water. It's not very scenic, after experiencing the lovely greens and blues of the Great Lakes. It is, however, a great place for mosquitoes, who were quite aggressive.

The other downside to the campsite was that there aren't any trailheads or unique features to make your stay something to write home about. It's also within hearing distance of the Interstate, not that it was loud, but it was there. It wasn't a horrible experience, but it wasn't that great, either. Perhaps it is good fishing (?), but it was not what we were hoping for.

Loved it. Bathrooms were clean and campground was quiet. Close to town, but still felt away. We learned from the host there is a useable role swing into the river a short way away, but we didn’t get a chance to try it out! Wading in the river to cool off was a delight. Just a beautiful, relaxing space.
