I hope we can choose our specific campsite number upon booking rather than finding out when we arrive, since you get what you book anyway. Also, there should be a walking trail along the river. The view by the river is beautiful so we could walk and enjoy the scenery, the staff is helpful, and the surroundings are very clean.

The only real issue I have is there was no bear bins for food I was just told to leave it in the car, but I was also told they were going to build some later into the season. Everything else was fantastic with my stay.
