This was my first camping experience and I couldn't have picked a better place. The property is absolutely stunning! I can't wait to return in the summer, but I'm so glad we got to see the fall colors. Such a short walk to the river, which is just gorgeous. The cabin was perfect for us. The wood stove and water system were super easy to use and having a TV was a cherry on top! Lol. There were little touches everywhere of things that were either helpful or just plain charming. My main concern, being a first-timer was safety and that box was definitely checked. It's a perfect spot for a couple, a family with children or a group of college kids. We just left and I can't say enough. Thanks, Marla, for an amazing time!

We stayed in campsite one. It was really nice and not too far from the parking spots. The bathroom was also nice and not too far of a walk from the campsite. We will definitely be back again. We loved that they provided firewood! Just be prepared to carry your camping stuff to your site, they do have wagons but when we went everyone else had taken them already and kept them at their sites so we had nothing to use to haul our stuff to our site.

We loved staying here! Campsite 6 is the most remote, which we loved, and was right by the river. It was a large wide open space with lots of shade and plenty of wood for campfires. Our dog loved the wide open space too! The carts were a God-send to help us bring our stuff in! So thankful for them! Would love to return!!❤️

This is the second time I have stayed at the cabin and both times have been an amazing experience! The amenities offered are amazing! I felt connected to the outdoors while still being able to enjoy the comforts of a clean and well supplied facility! A great way to get away for the weekend without all the hassles of traditional tent camping. A great way to dip your toe into camping before going all out into a tent.

We had an amazing stay! The site was quiet and beautiful, especially in the early morning on the river. It's clear the hosts care about the property and the guests. Would love to stay again when we're in town.

The campgrounds were clean and maintained. It was easy to get to and quite. I only stayed for one night, but I enjoyed myself thoroughly. I'd recommend for anyone to give it a chance. Being so close to the river was delightful and I'll be returning again in the future.

1 night at River Camp Fort Wayne

Nice campground nestled close to the St Mary’s River and just 12 minutes from downtown Fort Wayne. I went on a holiday weekend so all the sites were occupied. There are some sites that are close together and a couple more secluded sites. Marla was friendly and accommodating. Free firewood to gather was nice, and there’s plenty of it. There are string lights that run through the bulk of the campground, they all run on one extension cord. So it was kinda awkward to go around to other campers asking if we could kill the lights. I did wait until 11:00 to ask, it was all good. Just didn’t dig the vibe of everything lit up. Overall, great place. I’ll definitely be back on a less busy weekend. Also, a bonus to live in Ft Wayne and have this place so close for an impromptu overnight. Sidenote: there is a next door neighbor that likes to have band practice outdoors. They played The Boys are Back like six times in a row, turned up to eleven. They’re not great but that’s why they’re practicing 🤘🏼

This campsite is great! Feels like you’re far away when you’re really super close to town. Really nice to have access to the flush toilet and sink as well. We will be back for sure!

This was a great place to camp! We were at site 6, which is a vary large spot and the only one directly adjacent to the river. Apparently sometimes it gets too wet when the river is high, but we lucked out. Parking isn’t far away, but is up a hill. So beware of lots of heavy gear like we had. But that’s on us and they have wagons to use too. As of now, most of the logs for firewood around site 6 were too punky and damp, but we were fine buying some as stores are a quick trip away. Some poison ivy around, so keep your eyes open. General camping rule in any dispersed woods camping. They maintain trails nicely and some lovely walks around their acreage. We stayed Fri-Mon over Labor Day and it was a little noisy. But it’s a very popular time for large families to camp. In fact, 90% was from a large group with multiple small kids that ran screaming everywhere…all day and evening. But they were having fun and we weren’t mad about it. Marla (and Bingo) are so kind. She walked around to make sure we had everything we needed. We’ll definitely be returning. Thanks again, Marla!
