GenieSummary

What others are saying about this campground
. This campground is perfect for those looking for a peaceful and natural camping experience. The sites are spread out, wooded, and some of them are located right along the stream. The sound of the rushing creek provides a peaceful white noise. The nearby Savage River reservoir is great for kayaking, and the camp store nearby offers a good selection of basics along with boat rentals. Mosquitos are an issue, but by no means awful. Pit toilets are a nice long walk or a short drive away and not the worst I’ve seen. This is a great place for a short stay or a whole camping trip.
