Great river access. Was only 1/3 full on a Sunday before Independence Day. Most sites are FCFS. Clean pit toilets, clean campground. You can get 2 bars on AT&T if you wade into the middle of the river. Friendly hosts. Some road and train noise. Trains do not use their whistle nearby so it's barely noticeable at night. Some folks with generators but mostly off by 10pm. Weird donkey ghost across the highway that glowed in the moonlight and told me to visit Portugal even though I don't have a passport. Conveniently located garbage cans. Fresh water taps located throughout the campground.

For 2 of us, this site was perfect.
Riverside, clean, pretty spacious, table & fire pit included, half sun half shade.
Downfall: near the main road (traffic noise) & train noise. If you are a light sleeper or looking for a quieter site, this probably will not be for you. *There are other sites away from traffic noise & train.

Overall campground was great.
Hosts were nice, place was clean, bathrooms were clean & did not stink, it was quiet (didn't experience drunkin parties), river was nice during hot weather (but current was still pretty strong). Fishing wasn't the best for us (no live bait, only flies & lures).

This is a nice campground. We chose a site that was closer to the river, but also closer to the highway. The setting was beautiful, but between the highway and the train tracks across the river, there was no illusion of wilderness. The water spigots were already winterized in mid-September and while this wasn't a problem for us, I wonder why they don't just wait to do it at the end of the month when the campground closes.

Clean camp site. Other than road noise pretty quiet.
