Riverside Wanderer Hideaway

Unfortunately, this camping spot was a major disappointment. The property was so overgrown that we weren't even able to camp there. The listing advertised it as a "private retreat," but that was far from reality. The nearby bridge had cars constantly driving across it, which took away from any sense of privacy or peacefulness. Additionally, the listing stated that water was available from a spigot, but that wasn't the case. This was yet another example of the property not matching what was advertised. To make matters worse, the neighbors were extremely rude and made it very clear that campers were not welcome in the area. This made the experience even more uncomfortable and uninviting. Overall, the property has potential, but it needs serious maintenance, and the listing needs to accurately reflect the actual conditions and available amenities. Between the overgrown campsite, lack of advertised water access, constant traffic, and unwelcoming neighbors, this was nothing close to the peaceful, private camping experience we were promised. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this location in its current condition.

It was a great place to stay! There was an incredibly pretty river with lots of very small waterfalls. The land was nice and so were the neighbors. If seeing the stars is your priority, this would not be my top pick, but other than that it was fantastic!

The site was easy to find, and the space along the river was really lovely. Sweet spot to get in the water and just be. It’s super sandy and fairly residential - so it doesn’t feel fully like “camping” - but that was expected as the description is accurate. There was some debris at the site: an old tire, some plastic trash we had to fish out of the fire pit, etc. For the price, it felt like it could have been “cleaner,” but overall it was a good size space for our large group of multi-setup campers (tent, car, etc.)
