Layout
This primitive tent site is on the road to the River House; while it’s not our most private location, it’s one of the most convenient—just steps from the Pavilion and the water.
Outside area
The site includes a Smokeless Breeo fire pit with removable grill, 2 Adirondack chairs and a picnic table. No power or water at the site itself, but both are available just a short walk away at the Pavilion (water available seasonally). Firewood bundles available for purchase at the camp store.
Note:
Ideal for families or groups who want riverside camping near the Pavilion without sacrificing comfort. Combine with River House for flexible sleeping and gathering options.
