George and Gini were so amazing and kind! They blew up tubes for my friends and I to float the river. The campsite was fully stocked with fire wood. And I love how close the campsites are to the river. It was such a beautiful place to stay and had a lot of amenities! I will definitely be returning!

George and Gini own a beautiful property. They continuously went above and beyond for my boyfriend and i’s stay. The bathroom was very clean, being next to the river was amazing and I felt very comfortable and safe the entire time! Thank you both so much and I’m excited to return!

George and Gino were so kind and have thought of everything at the campsite. You get the best of both worlds—a secluded camp site feel while still being near some conveniences like a port-a-potty, tubes and life jackets, picnic tables, charcoal grills, rope swings, homemade wooden benches and other unique, handmade seating along the riverbank.
They’ve customized the common area along the riverbank for family fun and convenience. They provided firewood, fire starter, a fire pit, and made sure we had everything we needed. We loved our experience and will bring the rest of the family back for some warm weather fun.

We had the best time visiting George and Gini’s spot! The river is so peaceful, and we had so much fun hanging out with fellow campers. George gathered the kids for a hayride while all the parents chatted, and then made sure everyone’s fire pits were set up and ready to go for the evening. He and Gini were incredibly accommodating. We’ll be back during warmer months to tube down the river!

AMAZING place! Free firewood, George will come and collect and haul out your trash every evening, there are so many amazing thoughts out details of this campsite. $5 all day tubing! We will definitely be back! The only downside is that there aren't picnic tables at the campsites, but there are benches we used as a make shift table. We will just be sure to bring a folding table with us next time!
