Depending on the site you choose, you could have an amazing view from your campsite. We chose wisely and reserved site 60 which is right on the water (see photo). There were a few cons, such as: sites being very close together, outhouses are clean but smell worse than most and unless you've been there before or read a bunch of reviews you could get stuck at a viewless site. I recommend going to one of the shower houses if you need to use the restroom and definitely look at the site map and stay in one of the sites to the north.
Packed with RVs. Great location to camp. Beautiful nature and easy access to river. The only problem was Mississippi mosquitoes, they were in thousands. I don’t think they bite like smaller ones but still inconsistent.
Easy sites to back into. Well kept. Lot’sa quiet roads for the little ones to ride and run. Paved bicycle trail within riding distance.
Excellent Corp of Engineers site to decompress. The mosquitoes were a bit vicious. Bring citronella candles!
Well maintained army corps campground on Mississippi river, trails,fishing,watch the tow boats.
