About this claim

Members have reported positive experiences at the Swank East property, noting easy access along a narrow trail through the woods leading to the river, which is typically shallow.

Some members mentioned the need for four-wheel drive in muddy conditions and highlighted the primitive camping options available. While there have been observations of litter from other visitors, members have actively cleaned up the area.
