This basic site enjoys a picturesque setting above a bend in the river, with multiple clearings and stone fire pits stretching back along the road.
The river bend has some steps cut into the bank, taking you down to a pretty section of the water.
The river is shallow here, and is a great spot to have a splash and cool off during summer. The river may dry up late in summer.
