The campground I give 5 stars. The camp host Ken. 2, the reason being. My dad came to drop my mother off and he wanted to charge 8.00 for parking for just 20 min. Now mind you, we only had our motorhome. We did not have a second vehicle. Then when my husband arrived he just needed to unload the Jeep, he asked for 20 min. He told him no way, and when my husband argued, Ken threatened to call the Sheriff on him. That must be something he likes to do as he had called the sheriff on a transient that was in the campground, and then two men on horses. I don’t go camping to get threatened to have the police called on me. We didn’t raise our voice, we were great campers. Paid a lot of money to be there. Rules are rules. But really? Did he really have to be right up our hind ends the second another car pulled up? And who does well with threats like that? Then on the day it was time to leave. Same thing! The morning camp host was great. Told ya we can take our time leaving, as o have a child in a wheelchair, and it does slow us down. Ken comes on shift and starts harassing us right away. It was just too much. I’ll be back. But hopefully I can have a pro active conversation with him and hope it won’t happen again. Otherwise he was friendly. And my camp site was clean, bathrooms and surrounding area was clean. You don’t have to be nasty to people that aren’t in turn being nasty to you.

What campers say
Magpie Campground offers riverside, back-to-nature camping that's popular for tent camping and small trailers. Many visitors praise friendly hosts, clean (if basic) pit toilets, and the soothing sound of the nearby river. Expect tradeoffs: the campground sits close to a highway so traffic noise can be noticeable, although it can be quiet midweek. Sites vary—some are tight with overgrown brush and limited room—and a few guests reported hornets and an occasionally brusque ranger interaction. Overall it's well-liked for its natural setting and convenience to the water, but consider site size and noise when planning a stay.
