The campground was easy to find. Checkin was simple and our site overlooking the Ohio River was easy to find, get into with a great view of thee Ohio river. The full hookup components were in good shape and placement. The level site was covered with coarse gravel and included the usual picnic bench and fire ring. There was a wire fence separating the sites along the steep bank leading to the river. Good if you have kids but spoiled view of the river when siting outside. However the view from our RV was great - we watched barges of many types moving up and down the river with a dam and locks visible about a mile upstream.
The trees on site were all young saplings about 6-8 foot tall. My wife didn't like the coarse gravel - said it hurt her feet even with shoes. There are train traacks crossing at the entrance with frequent trains passing with horn and engine noises.
Overr all experience was good. Atee out one night at a nice pizza place in nearby Franklin Furnace and toured the river wall murals in Portsmouth.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this small private campground. Half of the sites including ours are along the Tuckasegee River about 20 ft away. Watched several fly fishermen working the river. All sites have full hook ups. Entire area is newly graveled and clean. Looked like 3 cabins and 4 tepees for rent. Park owner greeted us by name when we arrived and was helpful. Bathhouse looked great with private rooms with shower, toilet, and dressing area. Also a couple of washer and dryers.
Negatives (to us) - While park is level the entrance from route 19 to Old River Rd was a very steep drop from route 19. Entering and leaving with RV in tow was challenging. Sites were very close together. Hookups especially for sewer were behind RV pad requiring us to purchase an extension for the sewer hose.

Killer Wifi - Our Roku worked great! We had a pull thru site with full hookups. paved level pad for RV. Some road noise. passenger side area was a bit narrow Very helpful staff. Bit confusing entrance - instead of parking in front of office. They want you to pull up to stop sign following arrows, stop and go into office. Got lots of helpful text messages day of reservation. They are trying, however not a good thing to read while driving.

Learned of the site from review by I Love RV Life. Arrived after 5 on a Sunday after making reservation about midday. Never got a promised set of directions that would have made access simpler. The last few miles were very curvy and up and down. Be aware the park is about a mile from entrance. They had a packet ready with that showed us where to go. Easy pull through site had a great level concrete pad with newer hookups. Wifi was very weak at our site and over air antenna only got 1 station. unfortunately we could not take advantage of the free cable - no patch cable on board. sites had a nice spread and we had open spots on either side. Morning revealed a great looking camp ground. They pickup trash daily from your unit.

100% full hookups. Site was pull thru with pea gravel in great shape. grass on entire site was neatly trimmed. Owner provided help with electrical issue. Excellent Wifi. Best site we have been to.

Registered via phone about 4 hours prior to arrival. Personable response was quick and easy. They had a packet ready at office when we arrived about 6pm. Level pull through site. Moderate highway noise overnight. Site personnel lead us out after we made wrong turn leaving site.

We stayed at Dallas Northeast Campground overnight on the way to Austin Texas on a weekday. The campground was clean and personnel were helpful.

Registered a week prior to arrival. They said we got last site open for Thanksgiving. RV's unoccupied on either side. Quick Checkin. We had plenty of room to back into site which was level. They provided full hook up with cable, cable box and co-axe. We found plenty of local stations over the air (50+) with good reception. Clean Bathroom/Showers/Laundry close to our site. A negative for this time of year was the oak tree dropping acorns all times of day on our rig. Especially on our bedroom slide out - loud hit and then a roll :) Allowed us to stay a couple of hours past check on Sunday.

Stayed one night on way to Austin TX. Called ahead around 1pm. Friendly person took info and reserved a pull through full hookup site. Met all our needs for the evening.

The young husband and wife running the campground were very welcoming and helpful as we set up. Since our stay was early October there was almost no other campers on site. We enjoyed siting by the lake on our first evening. However, no fault of campground it rained that night and and all day into the next night. We enjoyed a cozy day in our rv. They accepted our Passport America card which lowed our rate.
