This is quite an impressive covered bridge…which you can still drive through (but not walk through). It’s very long and you can see below that the structure is solid wood! Interesting construction! There’s a parking lot on one end with stairs down to the gravel beach and the river. Beautiful in the fall and not crowded but maybe busy in the summer months (guessing).

The bridge is really cool, never really seen one like that. Caution though only one car at a time going one way. The parking area had plenty of spots and a little set of stairs to go down to beach along the river. The river was nice, I didn't take a dip but Leia did. She wanted to go swimming but I didn't bring the long line. Otherwise there was a child about ten-ish who was jumping around and wading in the water there, probably a great spot for a dip on a hot day! The views from down there are indescribable, and a camera just can't do justice to that majesty!

Beautiful covered bridge! There is a nice parking area with plenty of space. It was mid afternoon on a Thursday, Sept 28, 2023, and we were the only people there. You can take some rough stone steps down under the bridge and walk around on the river bank.
