As others have stated, the restrooms were clean. I liked this place because it was not crowded. The non-electric sites are not paved but are moderately level. They are all grass. The electric spots are not paved either, but there are some decent spots. They have a dump facility. As others have also stated, the railroad tracks literally border the property line. Any electric spots on the east side of the property are literally 20’ from the tracks. Unfortunately, the trains blow their horns due to the RR crossing that enters the campground. Trains pass almost hourly, sometimes more. I was ok with it but my wife said never again. For boondocking in the non-electric along the Mississippi River and clean showers, the $14 a night was worth it. I love that recreation.gov now allows for zero day (same day) bookings. I hate these other sites that require you to reserve no less than 3 days in advance.

Great family campground. Galena to the North and Savanna/Mississippi Palisades to the south. Sunsets over the river looking west are spectacular. The trains are wonderful, very regular traffic of high priority north and south bound double stackers traveling at speed.

@johnc3063297 · Camped on Oct 9, 2020 at Campsite #31

Great time. We will miss the camp host when she retires. Please put an outhouse by the dump station so the girls don't have to walk so far.

@LukeM4451145 · Camped on Oct 9, 2020 at Campsite #3

Wonderful little campground on the banks of the Mississippi with a lot to explore in the area. Note that freight trains pass by on a regular basis and use their horns at the nearby crossing. Might be a deal breaker for some, but not me.

The park itself is nice. The staff are accommodating. However, the train is so near, so loud and pass so often that I don’t think I’ll come back.

@CindyH757 · Camped on Sep 25, 2020 at Campsite #31

This is such a nice facility! We like that it is right on the Mississippi and we have easy access to kayak. The restrooms are super clean and I really appreciate that. If you don't like the sound of trains then you might think of going elsewhere. We love that sound! I would highly recommend this campsite!

It's a very nice campground with clean facilities. The only downside was the trains. Bring your earplugs if you want to get sleep.

Off the beaten path, well worth the 6 mile backroads to get there. smaller campground, located on east side of Mississippi river. will not support large class A

nice and quiet nice clean bathrooms

@CesarM570 · Camped on Sep 4, 2020 at Campsite #4

I would've gave it 5 stars if they would clean out an area for on-shore fishing. You need a boat, if not your out of luck. Overall beautifully kept and clean rest/shower rooms.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
