Why they chose this property
I’ve always been a big component for bringing families and friends together and getting kids to explore the outdoors. Rusty’s Roost River Camp offers the common comforts we’re accustomed too while still encouraging families and friends to put down the phones and get outside. The biggest reward so far is seeing the pictures of families making memories somewhere I created. These memories will outlast any tablet or video game. Grab a pole, hop on a tube and enjoy this beautiful place.
