Customer Reviews
Our campsite was on a good sandy spot, I ran barefoot the whole time we were in our camp! Downfall to our site was that there is a playground directly beside it not joined with the campground (Broken Arrow) and there was traffic ALL night shining their headlights until around 2AM. Next night same. Pd $60 for 2nights 3people and one dog.
I just spent 3 nights tent camping at this campground. I looked it up prior to planning this trip(about 6 months out), and checked out other campgrounds before deciding on this one. I told the owner I was looking for a spot right on the river so she hopped in her side by side and showed me a really beautiful spot, in which I stayed the 3 nights. I liked this place because it was quiet and it has the basic amenities. The bathrooms were not fancy but the toilet worked and was decently clean, so that’s all that matters. The showers were shabby to say the least but they got me clean and feeling fresh so I’m really not complaining(shower shoes required), just an honest observation. If you are looking to go ‘glamping’ or have high expectations for a campground, then this place is definitely not
I got there early and the owner lady was very helpful and nice, to get me a good spot to camp. $10 primitive and $20 with electric. After a tough day of hill climbing bicycling the TransAmerica Route76, this place was conveniently close to town that serves a lot of needed supplies before heading back to camp. Unfortunately I was caught by the rain later afternoon that lasted all night till the next day after 2pm or later. SMH Lots of flying bugs too. Toilets look eh okay and the showers are eh. Not the best. Heavy deep gravel entering onto the property. Had to walk the bike. Dumpster up front. Just bad timing from the rain.
I have mixed feelings about this place. The staff seem to be trying to get something off the ground. It appears the place flooded and they are starting over. The plus side first: the people were nice and helpful. They came and picked us up for our float trip. The trip ended at camp so that was nice. The site was nice. The bad: there was trash piled up at the entrance, the showers didn't work. The bathrooms were nasty. They don't offer ice or anything. People who camp spend money. What a wasted opportunity to have a thriving business! I'd actually come over more time to see if they improved. I'd recommend making a building on stilts and sell some stuff! Get trash service or some dumpsters!
Great place to float and super nice staff mean this is a great place to go camp. One star off only because after previous flooding the campground facilities are not yet totally recovered, though everything else was so great it hardly mattered.
