Good for kids
On-site parking
This is a place to put your boat in the river, and a place to sleep for free. I went there just to sleep. It's close to a couple homes. There's a portapotty stinking up the sleeping area, so I put my tent in the parking area. The whole place is quite small, sandwiched between the river and a swamp. The owls and jumping sturgeon were making a ruckus that night.
Good boat landing, but can be rough to get boat on trailer when current is strong. .
Nice landing
It was quiet, private and those launching their boats at dark o'clock in the morning before sunrise are as quiet as can be.
