Very nice and clean camp ground. Owner is very pleasant and willing to help with anything you need. He does all the upkeep and maintenance himself, no other employees. He is right there on site at his camper or house next door. He drives by often on his gator always has wood with him if needed, 6 dollars a bundle and descent size bundle. It was very quite when we was there, could be a little nosier in the mixed of summer. He also has kayak rentals for 35.00 a kayak, about 3-3.5 hour trip. We will be back next year.

This is such a lovely, quiet place with such nice people working there and staying there. I anchored to a tree and floated on one of the camp's tubes for hours, the very clean river calmly cruising beneath me. The sites are generous in size and easy to pull into. The staff and owners were over and above what you'd expect - they actually took an entire day and walked the river cleaning it for miles. I've never seen that before. A hidden gem.

This is the second time camping at Northern Sites. Had a group outing with my Solo Women who caravan and camp group. The owners Carrie and Gordy are awesome. Gordy takes care of their guest and the grounds. Carrie is in the office and takes care of the business part. Always clean and tidy. Gordy is Very friendly and accommodating. While doing his rounds, which are often, he is always willing to stop if you wave your hand for help. Ruben who works with him, was a big help to me this weekend. Lol great place, great people.

I've never been to a private campground that has been so patrolled by the hosts of the camp. It was wonderful! Everyone seemed to have an enjoyable week. No trouble at all. Hot weather, not a problem go to the beach or kayaking. Bonus of the trip. Owner had his 60th birthday party and invited the entire campground. We will visit again. Thank you for the wonderful experience.
