We took our first trip to Cuivre River this past weekend. My wife, who is French (1st US generation), is appalled at how the locals pronounce it but after getting past that she (and I) very much enjoyed the park. The park is rather large and has great trails, canoe & kayak rentals for a reasonable price, decent activities for the kids, and a beach on the lake. We also had the enjoyable adventure of trying to leave the park before the roads were flooded on Sunday morning.
The one issue we had was the bath house and and outhouses around the campground. They were not maintained nor well stocked. A little bit of effort here would go a long way.
I read a review or posting somewhere mentioning that the roads in were a bit tricky for towing. I did not find this to be the case. There are 2 or 3 steep hills depending on which entrance you take but nothing that is unmanageable.
Overall, it's a great place for a weekend trip and it's only have an hour from our house. We will be returning.
