Heading east or west on 97, just keep going. We made the mistake of staying here... very bad. The restrooms/ outhouses were bad. The owner had a car parked at the house with loud music playing through the open windows. For $30 there was nothing, the showers and only toilet were in a dilapidated trailer filled with moths and mosquitoes.... More

The following reviews are not exaggerated! Shoddy campground and indifferent hostess. We were asked for an extra $5 to use the shower (only available in the morning) but, after a sleepless night and a look at the facilities in the light of day, decided to pack up and leave. For a business that deals in cash, it was very strange... More

If you are looking for a nice place on the river this is not it. We were sorely disappointed and felt ripped off at $10.00 per person per nite. The outhouses were disgusting and the owner was hesitant to clean them for us. Her 5 dogs barked in the nite for hours and the owner denied it in the morning.... More

We booked in with a family reunion for the long weekend. Upon arriving we pulled into a "hook up site", this consisted of a water hook up and no power at the site. We paid $40 a night for 15amp and water... When we asked about the power service we were told we need to move over and be awning... More

Before you decide to stay at this establishment, or not, maybe you should ask yourself the following questions: 1.Do you love listening to the train every hour and having your bed vibrates as it goes by? If this isn’t your cup of tea well then maybe you might consider other options. 2.Does the thought of lying in bed, reading a... More

Wow! What a rip-off. The B&B is a dump. 2 tiny, smelly bedrooms in a doublewide with the cigarette smoking owner in the next room. The upholstery was stained and torn. The bedding was torn and the place was very sub-par. The "cabin" was far from the outhouse - no electricity, no running water, and a broken futon that we... More

Thou The Rock and River goes above and beyond to ensure our guests are happy with there stay here, there are regretably unique and rare individuals such as these who will abuse our facilities and need to be asked to leave such as in this case. The post, which has been requested to be removed by trip advisor, and has... More
