We loved this camping spot! This site was closest to the river, so our two little kids could easily walk back and forth on the path. The water was cold at this time of year, but our kids had a lot of fun playing along the edge of the river and dipping in midday when the sun was warmer. At night it was peaceful and you could hear the river flowing in the background. A wonderful spot for families to camp!

Oak Tent Site
Wonderful campground with a beautiful swimming hole. We were a group of 15. The campsite was comfortable. And the bathrooms were spotless. We had a fantastic time.

Canopy Tent Site
We had a shaded camp site with a sink, table and propane fire pit. It was lovely! Had a wonderful time. The beach and river were tons of fun, and we used the volleyball court. Would recommend you avoid the weekends. The beach is small, and was very crowded on Saturday.

Lovely place with quick access to river and some nice places to enjoy it. Very quiet. Kris (and her husband Paul) were delightful, informative hosts. Hook ups were easy to access and for $20 (if you are not a member) the Thousand trails RV camp, just down the road will let you use their dump station. Will definitely return there again.

My husband, 2.5 year old toddler, and I stayed the River campsite. We were greeted by the host shortly after we arrived. Though all the sites were booked up, it was relatively calm and quiet for the duration of our stay. The River site is definitely a far walk from the communal sink, showers, and bathroom, so keep that in mind when you choose your site.
One thing to call out was that the provided propane tank for the fire pit was actually on when we arrived at our site. A bit nerve wracking to find that out that gas has been being released for who knows how long around your site.
Overall, we had a lovely stay and would book again.

Canopy Tent Site
I recently stayed at this campsite and had a great experience overall. The location was excellent — peaceful, scenic, and conveniently situated. One of the highlights was definitely the river nearby, which added a relaxing and refreshing touch to the whole stay.
The site itself was very well organized, from the layout of the pitches to the clean and accessible facilities. Everything felt thoughtfully maintained, which made the stay stress-free and enjoyable.
That said, I did find it a bit expensive for what was offered. While the setting and organization were great, the pricing felt slightly on the higher side.

Kris's HipCamp is a great spot. She checked in with us on day one to ensure we had everything we needed. The site was clean. It was mostly shaded from the oak trees and has a beautiful view to rolling hills, oaks and wildlife. It was a short and peaceful walk to the river. The bathrooms were clean. The downsides for us would be that the Larry and Curley sites are very close to each other. We would only reserve it again if we were traveling with another family who could reserve the neighboring site - and in that case it would be a bonus because we could all be together. I would recommend the Moe site if possible because it's in a more private location just up the road. The other possible downside is the available beach is fairly small and just one small section of the river is accessible for swimming and water play. It was great for us because no one else was there when we were, but I can't imagine trying to share the small area with more campers.

Bring bug / mosquito spray and watch out for Fox tails for your pets.
Another wonderful hipcamp experience.

I had a wonderful experience at this campsite! We visited during the week, and to our delight, our site was the only one occupied, which gave us the freedom to enjoy the swimming area on the river all to ourselves. The campsite is well-maintained, and the hosts are incredibly welcoming. I highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a peaceful getaway in nature! It’s also close enough to a few places to easily grab ice for a cooler or anything you may have forgotten. The site it self was more private and the river being just a few yards away was perfect for daily activities. I highly recommend bringing a volleyball or a frisbee to enjoy the on site activities.

Larry RV Site
Nice quiet campsite with river access nearby. The showers and bathrooms were immaculate. They have great sites for vans, tent camping and group sites with cooking and sinks if you have a large group.

Fantastic campsite! The little beach / swim area was perfect for our little kids. The campsite itself was pretty private, shaded, and made for a great weekend. Can't wait to go back.

Moe RV Site
The property is great place to spend a quiet fun time with family. The owners are very friendly and stopped by to say hi during our stay. My wife and I just got back and had the entire campground for ourselves literally from Wednesday thru Friday. We stayed at Moe's campsite. The spot is perfect for our small 17-ft trailer and our dog. River is just a short walk around the corner. It was an awesome campsite for RnR. We are looking forward to go back with our grand kids.

Overall we had a good time but i found aspects of how the camp is advertised to be extremely misleading and there was a plumbing issue that made one of the mornings less than ideal. This wouldn’t be a huge issue had i not spent about $370 for the 2 night stay. We wanted to spend a weekend by the water for my wife’s birthday and by the recommendation of another camp we chose here. When we arrived the beach/water access was small but nice. I however didn’t realize this was part of another camp site (i guess?). The following day there were 3 tents set up on the shore blocking water access and made it not so accessible unless you wanted to walk through a camp site. I checked to make sure and this was indeed a shared space but all the tents and tables in the area honestly didn't leave a lot of space to enjoy the water. The only other place you could get water access dropped off immediately and was full of bramble. I was very disappointed as the entire reason i chose this spot was for the water access. But like i said, the 3 tents on the shore took up basically the entire shared area. The next morning all 3 toilets were not flushing and all were very much used. Ended up using the portapotty at the property next door. I understand that these kinds of things happen, but i expected a little better for the $370 i spent for 2 nights. I feel like the tent/shore situation and the toilets full of poop really soured the experience. I couldn't in good conscience recommend this spot.

I loved Kris and Paul’s camping site. It was very peaceful and beautiful. My kids loved fishing, exploring the beach and nature. Everything was perfect. It was my kids first experience with RV, and they loved it.
We definitely want to come back.

Moe RV Site
We enjoyed our stay. The land was lovely, close to in town conveniences but secluded in nature. I'll probably go back. We went during the week and almost had the whole property to ourselves.

Beautiful spot by the river. Plenty of shade, easy access to the water within a few hundred yards. Very peaceful environment and helpful hosts. A few sites have electricity and water which was perfect for our all electric rig. Overall a great spring weekend, highly recommend!

Curley RV Site
The campsites are all lovely. We stayed in Curley, an RV site. It was spacious and had the perfect balance of shade and sun with beautiful green exploding everywhere around us and plenty of wildflowers as well. The bathrooms were clean, and we enjoyed the ping pong and volleyball court.

Very responsive host. The camp site was exactly as it was described. So quiet and peaceful. A wonderful place to camp for a night - or longer! Would definitely return here.

This campsite is a great option for family camping. The restrooms, showers, fire pit, sink on site, and other accommodations made our stay much easier and more comfortable. The shaded table area is also a great plus for lunches and just to hang out. The kids loved the river area and played there for a couple of hours. We also liked the fact that the campsites aren't too near each other, which gives you some privacy and helps you feel more connected to nature.
