Description

MODERATOR NOTE: No overnight camping allowed, please respect the wishes of the locals.

Asphalt parking lot just far enough off the highway to be quiet. Nice river view. Little airport close so some quiet small planes in the evening but not a bother. Picnic tables. 2hr parking from 8am to 6pm. We had no problems here for one night. A few cars about till later in the evening.

Edit: There are now "no camping or overnight parking" signs

Great little spot but gets very busy with locals in the evening and morning. I was here a few days ago and then came back today and now there are "no camping or overnight parking" signs. Still managed to stay the night without being bothered

Right on the water when tide comes in. Pathway made for a pleasant bike ride with several geocache finds. Portapotty up at the corner in permanent wood shelter. Looked like we'll have company since a few other vans around.

Good place for one night. Quiet at night and great view. It is a public parking spot so move on next morning. But no problems to park

Good spot with a nice view. Quiet at night. A lot of people hang out in their cars here. There were a couple of other vans and RVs parked for the night. The pit toilet is still there!

Nice spot, quiet, lots of locals coming for a walk. A sign says 2hrs parking mon to fri 8am to 5pm. Big rigs will fit but parking is not huge. We stayed 1 night, no issues.

Seems all good. Nice walk/bike trail. Park gets a bit busy in the evening after work, then quiets down. There is an outhouse just north along the trail. There is a sort-of full-time resident here in a van we met, suggested we park further away from him even though we were parked for hours before he showed up and he could of parked well away from us when he arrived, a bit odd.

Report Check-In

We stayed here for 1 night, no problems, out by 10am. There were another 3 vans/trucks who were also parked for the night. If you have time, enjoy the nice walk along the river!
