Very nice camping ground with great sites on river bank.
Horrible facilities but otherwise well maintained.

Went in winter.
It was freezing at night, but we were the only ones there. Great river and trail access. Bring sand fly repellent (even in August).

4.0/5

Beautiful spot, nice big field of grass along the riverbank, a few picnic benches, fire pits and a single pit toilet.
Sand fly festival, but not so bad down at the rivers edge.
