Site 8 - Primitive River Paradise
Two rivers meet here and one is busy and one definitely is not. The quieter river was excellent paddling, the busier was kind of a boat parade (we were there on a Saturday). The spot we reserved was already taken when we arrived, didn’t realize it was first come first serve. Spoke with the host on the phone, had a nice conversation. Place is very primitive but not especially remote, (boat traffic, houses across the way). Two things to watch for: poison ivy (mostly near trees) and ticks, found two on me, if you come prepared you will not have a problem. If money is no object this is the place for you.

Site 1 - Primitive River Paradise
This spot was so special! We were able to camp right on the water where the 2 rivers come together and it was so peaceful and private. Primitive with Porta John’s was just fine with us. It was great to enjoy the rivers and paddle back to camp. The wildlife and people/boat watching was great too. Host Donald was very kind and welcoming as well. Worth every penny, we will be back!

Site 1 - Primitive River Paradise
One of the best things at the end of the rainbow, no joke. Very convenient and easy for someone wanting to hunker down after a day playing on the river, which is exactly what we needed. The host, Donald, is very responsive and extremely kind and flexible to plans. I will definitely be coming back, and will be recommending to friends.

Site 8 - Primitive River Paradise
Perfect location for launching onto Rainbow River! Gorgeous clear water already there. Clean amenities, firepit, picnic benches. Great communication. We enjoyed everything except noise was a bit loud from a condo party across the river, and traffic, although that’s not the site’s fault. Would stay again for sure, but not in a tent. If you have a camper I expect the noise is not a problem. Highly recommend.
