This place is magical. If you're a ship junkie or just love everything that's majestic about the Great Lakes, you will find it here. Great place to watch freighters and get some "boat therapy".

Stayed at park 7-31-22 to 8-2-22. Decent park, with cool views of the freighters passing by. 1 old bath house in the riverfront section and one new (not sure of the wagon wheel). All riverfront campground sites you are required to back onto, so you cant all group together like at some parks. several of the sites near the old bath house in the riverfront campground, you have to park on a crowned gravel drive, which makes it hard to level because the gravel is narrow and it is elevated vs the rest of the site. Staff seems helpful and friendly. You do hear gun shots during the daytime hours due to the target shooting areas in the park, especially on the weekends, but its not too bad. There is a small day use parking area on the river right across the road from the main campground area. People do swim over there, but be careful as it gets deep quick. River current didn't seem to be an issue close to shore but could be farther out, so if you are not a strong swimmer, its best to avoid this area for swimming. Overall, the park would be 5 stars with some newer bath buildings, roads and leveled campsites. Id prefer the ability to park as I please, but appreciate the idea and ability to share the view of the freighters passing by in any area of the campground

Love to come here! Beautiful view of the river and great day park to have lunch and watch the boats go by. Camping is always fun with many little towns and parks along the river to visit. Mosquitoes come out badly after dusk, only issue! Start your bonfire early!
