The last site sells this place. It sits directly on the river, and at $8 a night with almost no competition for spots, it's a steal for anglers, swimmers, or anyone who just wants to fall asleep to moving water. Self-sufficient tent campers with a water filter will be comfortable
No cell signal, no potable water, and a rough 3/4-mile washboard access road with tight turns and low limbs. Larger RVs will have a hard time getting in, and anyone who needs hookups or reliable infrastructure should camp elsewhere.

Summer brings the best conditions for river access and road travel. Daytime highs run 70–85°F, with nights dropping into the 40s–50s. Water clarity improves as flows settle, making swimming and fishing more productive. The five-site campground rarely fills, so solitude is easy to find. Winter closes the road to vehicles, though snowmobiles can reach the site. Watch for seasonal fire restrictions during dry months.
Best conditions for road travel, swimming and river access; reviewers cite summer use.
The Tollbridge Campground offers a minimal set of amenities suitable for nature-focused campers. Restroom facilities are present, specifically an accessible vault toilet. However, there is no potable water, so visitors need to bring their own or filter water from the nearby stream. Picnic tables are available at all five campsites. There is no garbage service, so visitors must pack out all trash. The campground does not provide electricity, hookups, or firewood sales.
