I had a pleasant experience camping at Bear Cave, a beautiful campground right on the river, with scenic views of boats passing by. The staff was genuinely welcoming and made efforts to maintain the grounds, especially after heavy rains. However, I was disappointed by the limited facilities available, such as the closed pool and arcade games that weren't functioning. Overall, it was a good escape into nature, but be prepared for some inconveniences.

While the campground has potential with its riverside views, some facilities were not well-maintained, like the closed pool and non-operational arcade games.

Our experience at Bear Cave was a mixed bag. While we appreciated the hard work of the staff and the beautiful natural scenery, the overall condition of the campground left much to be desired. From the closed facilities to the lack of adequate maintenance, it felt like we ended up in a different place than what was advertised on the website. Thankfully, we found some positives in our time there, but the negatives really overshadowed our visit.

The campground sites were tiny and uneven, which made it challenging to set up comfortably. We noticed several hazards, like dead trees nearby and insufficient space for our camper.

Bear Cave is located in a beautiful area right by the river, which gives it a lot of potential for fun outdoor activities like canoeing and exploring the trails.

Unfortunately, many facilities were closed or in poor condition. The pool and hot tub were empty and seemingly unused for a long time, and other amenities were lacking.

Our stay at the Riverside campground had its ups and downs. The riverside setting is beautiful, but the infrastructure definitely shows its age and could use some investment. While the staff didn't seem overly attentive, the potential for a great experience is there if improvements are made.

The camping sites were primarily dirt with sparse grass. We had issues with plumbing and electrical service. It was definitely not the cleanest or most comfortable stay I’ve had.

The service overall was lackluster. There seemed to be no one at the guard shack, and the staff didn’t address issues like overcrowding at the campsites.

The riverside location is a definite highlight, providing beautiful views and a serene atmosphere, but the access roads were too narrow for comfort.

Facilities such as the restrooms and showers were recently improved but lacked regular cleaning. Overall, they didn't meet expectations for upkeep.

Bear Cave has some charm with its riverside views and full hookup options, but it falls short in many areas. The campground needs significant repairs and maintenance, which was disappointing. While the sites can be enjoyable, the amenities are lacking, making it less than ideal for longer stays.

The campsites themselves are nice if you’re okay without many amenities.

Facilities like the pool were under construction, and the hot tub was broken, which didn't help the overall experience.
