We had a great time winter camping at the Rockford Ski Club. We spent some time in the club house, which is a rustic one-room building with a long picnic-style dining table and a little wood stove that kept us warm.

This campsite was a bit last minute and during the winter season but Jarrod was very accommodating and the site was beautiful at night with the stars. It was the perfect spot to stop during my travels and I highly recommend it!

This is the cutest little cabin for two people with beautiful hiking and river access. It was easy to find, navigate and get access. I’ll be returning.

Fall camping here was a wonderful experience! The property is gorgeous and there had been several improvements since the last time we camped here. We can't wait to plan another trip!

This was my first time as a 'hipcamer' and I have no regrets! This land was absolutely beautiful! The sites were some sites that were somewhat close to one another and then another that was fairly private. The trails seemed to connect to each site at least to an extent and were beautiful to walk through. When I was there, there weren't any other campers so it was perfect for me and my reactive dog! One trail when down to the river and was absolutely beautiful. We were able to see so many trees and all different colors with the season changing! The manager and someone I met in passing were both very kind and cooperative!

It was very relaxing and very quiet. Instructions to get in were very clear and it was very easy to navigate the campsite.

Great little camping compound. We stayed at the cabin which was clean, and the perfect size for 2. It had everything we needed, fire pit, picnic table, and pit toilets a short walk from the cabin. The spot is located down a long gravel wooded lane and feels remote and moderately private. The river access was great. Host was communicative and friendly. We felt very safe. There was some highway noise due to its close proximity to the interstate.

Such an amazing piece of land to explore. Lots of trails to walk/hike and the river access is well worth the steep rocky trek. Definitely get wood before getting into town, but the wood shed has plenty to pick through if you must purchase on site. It is cash only. I was fortunate that the only other (RV) campers were a click away because Site B is situated right next to Site A. That would be cool for a larger group to reserve both spots but I'm glad I didn't have such close neighbors.
Perfect place. Perfect stay.

My doggo and I had the place to ourselves for a night recently and went to bed to an incredible moonrise and woke up to an equally incredible sunrise. The grounds are well-maintained and it was easy to access. Perfect stop off place to rest on our voyage.

Great, quiet spot for our family of 4. Be sure to bring your own TP for the composting toilet, there is also a 24/7 gas station just a few minutes down the road if you prefer a flush toilet.

Pretty chill place to camp. Host was fantastic, and the weather was perfect. If you’re looking to get away from the city, this is a great place to do that.

I was looking for a tent site and stumbled on this tiny cabin with fold-down bed platforms. I enjoyed staying there - the screens make it very breezy and with a nice view. Wood at $10 a bucket was convenient and a fire pit with a grate was provided, along with a picnic table. Interesting site with the remnants of a former ski jump. The host was very responsive to communication.

Loved this campground! It's a beautiful spot. Really well taken care of and welcoming. We stayed at Campsite A which was a great choice. Campsite B was pretty close to A, so if you like your privacy, I'd go for C or D. But it wasn't a problem for us. Grounds were neat and well maintained, clubhouse had a few things we needed/were looking for. Compost toilet was not for us, but there was a pit toilet as well which was clean and well stocked. And to our children's delight - it wasn't stinky! We took a fun hike down to the river using the well marked path and took our bikes to Atwood Park which was a very short drive from the campsite. Really enjoyed our stay here and would love to return in the future.

Very private and quiet place to camp. Large enough to roam and forage, close to the river to cool off and close to Dollar General in case you forget anything. Had a wonderful birthday weekend and will be back again.

We loved the place so much from last year's adventures that we had to come back! :) It's still really private and peaceful even with other campers there. The firewood is priced REALLY well so we were able to keep a fire burning as much as we wanted. We're already looking forward to our next visit.

Great we had our own fire pit, fire wood was available. Unfortunately we got rained out so didn’t get to venture around the place but it was a very well maintained property and they had plenty of walking paths to wander through

I had a blast at this campsite. But more importantly to me is that my dog Meadow also had a blast. Only spent one night but will be back for sure if I pass through the area.
