Small cart-in campground set on high bluffs above the Mississippi River offering intimate viewpoints of river bends, sandstone bluffs, oak-maple woods and seasonal color. Best for sunrise/sunset riverlight, autumn foliage, and long-exposure waterscapes. Sites are primitive—carry gear to your site; expect limited vehicle access and parking at trailhead. Visit spring/fall for migratory birds and color, summer for green woodland light, and clear nights for stars. Weekdays bring the fewest campers.
