Positives: Great wifi, pristine washrooms/showers, site 4 nice river view, friendly/helpful hosts who allowed us a late checkout so we could ride the bike trails before leaving, happily charged the trailer and filled up the water tank before heading back off grid.
Slight negative: a little close to the road (but did not disturb sleep), sites have no privacy from each other, expensive (but our views are warped as we had been camping for free/$7.50/max of $35 per night till this point and this was our treat/regroup/check emails/refill/repower night)

The campsite is in a beautiful location, especially site 4 where we were, with a view of the river. Everyone has their privacy. Everything is very well maintained and the washrooms are always clean. We really appreciated the shower mat.
Thank you for suggesting activities for us to do. We went rafting with Liquid Lifestyles Whitewater Rafting. They were very good and knowledgeable!
And Clearwater is also a truly magnificent place!

We absolutely loved staying at Lindsay and Peter’s. the location was exceptional. The stars, moon, river and mountains, eagles soaring and horses roaming in the fields. Beds in the TV are comfy and stove and toilet work great. They provided water and some glow sticks and bubbles for my daughters! The TV does rock when someone moves and You can hear the trains.
We did the farm tour and it was fantastic. We learned so much and met so many animals.
I would highly recommend staying here!

Great little site by the river. Only 8 RV places and we weee the only RV there during our stay. The washrooms were outstanding. They were clean and well equipped. Fully serviced site with a beautiful beach across the road and a lake that you can swim in. There is a discount on the white water rafting down the road if you are staying at this site. Enquire with the owner.

We had a fabulous 2 nights in our RV here. The location next to river was beautiful, the showers were great and it was a lovely change away from larger campgrounds. We had an amazing time white water rafting and visiting waterfalls and swimming in Dutch Lake which was a short walk away. Highly recommended. We wish we had planned to stay for longer

Second time here and I hope to keep coming back! Didn't have any issues on the roads with my SUV. the campsite is perfectly maintained and close to the outhouse. There was some firewood there for us. The river area had lots of tall grass but totally worth it for the private beach!! Tons of raspberry bushes and we even found some blueberries! Its the only beach I can take my dogs to as they're fearful of stranger dogs and we love coming here so much!!
