loved the easy booking process, the cleanliness of the site and a friendly safe environment. The free shower with hot water is accessible 24/7. Beautiful river with blackberries and plums growing along it are just like in my childhood 🥹😍

Fairly quiet and clean site. Didn't see a single staff person... all was done online.

It was ok, very minimal trees, shade or privacy, however washroom was maintained and relatively clean. Picnic table was falling apart and unsafe, overall campground needs updating.

Campsite was clean and the customer service was good. People were friendly and helpful. The only negative point would be my site#53 was not a drive through site as advertised.

The camp site was right in the river and the view was spectacular. The campground was a bit suspect. Our neighbour had short turn around visits to his trailer and was in some kind of drug and or alcohol psychosis when he came over to borrow our phone to make a few calls to get some help. There were some questionable characters along the river when we went for a walk off site. We also found it odd that no camp host came by to see who had checked in to the site. Overall a nice camp site, but questionable camp ground.

Spacious site but lacked shade on a hot day. Showers were welcome. Only way in was from the front entrance. No short cuts. River was nice.

Our stay was quiet. The grounds are clean, the sites are level, the views of the river are lovely. There could be a bit more seperation between sites maybe with some sort of foliage. The price is a bit high for no wifi and no sewer hookup though. We never used the washrooms so I don't know what they are like. There was a portapotty as well for the sites further from the washroom which was clean. The management was friendly.

Location is great - feels like rural, but close to amenities. Right on the river with easy trail access to the water right off the riverfront sites.

I would have given you 4-5, but while sleeping my power went off and all my food in freezer thawed, ice melted and fridge warmed and spoiled other food for my camping trip.
