What stood out? The owners appeared to be the only staff for a solid booked Labor Day weekend. They did not keep the facilities clean. The bathrooms and showers were not kept clean. The toilet paper and paper towels were out in all bathrooms for two days. They did not provide soap for handwashing in the bathrooms and did not pick up trash during our entire stay. Owners shuttled boaters/tubers to vehicles up and down the river and closed the office and camp store for hours each day for this.
Owners and Staff: Husband and wife only - no staff - confrontational, demanding, rude.
Camp landscaping and surroundings: Wooded with all pine trees which were dead half way up the trees. Pine needles fell from the trees all weekend long. Would have needed a tarp over our cooking area to keep needles out of our food.
Campsite hookups: primitive tent, electric, water, Not enough electricity to power things in campers Campsite Descriptions: wooded, semi-private, pine needle bottom, picnic table, fire ring, highway noise; The picnic tables for the tent sites were old and rotted.
