We camped there last weekend. The campsite is a work in progress which made the stay a little rough even with the full hook ups. But the view of the Missouri River was great and made it worth wild. The trail between Portland and Bluffton was super!

We concur with the previous post. The trail between Portland and Bluffton is a must do! If you don't do any other portion of the KATY...do that one. You will experience five or so miles of glimpses/full views of the the MO river, green canopies of trees overhead, vine covered bluffs. Moss even grows on the trail. This portion was a respite from the heat in the mid-90 degree July weather because cool air flows all day in the deep green growth to the left, right, and above the rider. It's a good choice for a hike/ride.

We stayed two nights at "River's Edge". We were the lone campers on the grounds and we slept well in the cooler night air. I don't know if the MO river has something to do with the air cooling down at night, but it was NICE. The hot showers were appreciated to wash the KATY dust off. David, the campground manager, will give you a key to the trailer which also includes a sink, flushing toilet, and AC in a room you can cool off in. Firewood and night crawlers are available...talk to David.
