Campground Amenities
Our campground has gone through a makeover this year, with individualized campsites, new picnic tables, and a new solar heated rinse/shower station.
You can also take a stroll down to the entrance of the campground to book a kayaking trip. Guests are shuttled to the boat slip a few miles upriver and you can land right back where you started. No trying to find parking or lugging your own kayak!
