Changed our mind on rating - 3 stars. Better camps around, too prone to water issues, lack of grass at sites and river not visable and shallow.

Good spot but full of mud holes today - some sites very tight if manaeouvering camper trailers. lots of chopped firewood at some campsites. We didnt stay just verified details as we passed through.
