Campground Review and Description
Description: I was tent camping and had a beautiful location. The campground hosts were great and offered plenty of help setting up my tent. It was a quiet, peaceful escape.
Pros, Cons, Attractions and Additional Comments
Pros: Everything. It has to be one of the most beautiful places in the world. Visit the springs, and canoe the Ozark National Riverways!
Cons: It is a bit of a drive from pretty much everywhere, but it is worth the drive.
Attractions: Montauk State Park, which has one of the best naturalists in the country. Go take part in one of their programs, or tour of the old Montauk mill.
