River Front Park Campground

In 640ish miles paddling the river so far this was the worse experience by far. It started as hurricane Helene was due to hit and we decided to paddle 26 miles to make it to Brandenburg, as I saw from Google they had a CAMPsite. We made it about 7pm, just as the rains were spitting a little. I dragged everything, all the food water and everything we needed the last 42 days out of the water and up under the shelter. I booked a campsite for 2 nights right then and hurried to set everything up before the rains came, moving everything from the shelter to the campsite maybe .25 to .33 mile. As I was getting the last few things, the police came again and said "the park closes at dusk" and I said " i have a site." He then told me I can't camp in a tent there. I was like "what do you mean you can't camp in a tent? It's called a campsite, that is what camping is. If it is an rvsite, call it that". He was indignant and did not care. He threw me out at the start of a hurricane, exhausted from.soing the most miles yet and with no were to safely stay to ride it out. A complete lack of compassion and empathy. His response was that I checked the box to the waiver saying no campsite. Yeah buddy, like I had time to read the fine print for a campsite when a hurricane was coming. So I had tear everything down in pitch dark, get it all back down to the boat launch and paddle out into the abyss of night. Unreal. Also if you like police constantly patrolling and nanning you, I would look else where from this spot. I think in all the time I spent in this park maybe 3 hours total spread out in 2 different days, I saw cops patrolling 4 times.

Great place to camp on the river and hiking to the falls; boat ramp in city park. However the Wi-Fi has been hit or miss. No grills but has burn rings. However, there are a few places to eat nearby like Doc’s BBQ and Jailhouse Pizza to name a couple.

The RV park here is WONDERFUL. Clean, level gravel pads. Strong, free WiFi. Lots of grass for my dogs. Beautiful river views. Quiet. Close to the trail head. Felt safe the whole time. Would love to come back again.

This is where we always have my kiddos birthday parties.. 2 playgrounds & they have made new restrooms that are really nice.
