Beautiful and peaceful!
We loved staying at the River Camp RV site! It has full hookups, picnic table, trash/recycling and a large fire ring. The land was beautiful with nice paths through the woods to the river and our dog loved that he could run around off a leash! Loren the "super host" was very friendly, helpful with any questions and we got to enjoy a wonderful conversation about the area and history of the property. We'll definitely come back on our next trip though the area! Lauren, Sascha, and Pepper
