Customer Reviews
The first night was create and peaceful. The second night they had a birthday party and blasted music all night. Do not camp here if you are trying to actually sleep. Really rude and disrespectful to have the music that loud and sell campsites to customers.
Homeplace is a lot of fun. The prices have increased but I feel that was a good thing because it is not as crowded as it used to be. The grill has good food, and it’s made when you order it, so it’s fresh. The rope swing is great, there are two diving boards in a 10 foot pool and there is a water slide that any age can enjoy. The shallow end comes up like a beach, and there is a huge bucket that dumps water every couple minutes. It can be muddy in the grass where you sit, so I recommend bringing a towel for muddy feet or a small bucket of water if you don’t want muddy foot prints tracked on your blanket or towels you lay on.
Great place to take the family swimming. We have used their shelters for party's. The pool is awesome! A little something for everyone. Large shallow end for kids, diving boards, a slide, rope swing and large shady areas to relax.
It is not big rig friendly! Roads are very narrow with hills and tight turns. Thank goodness there wasn’t a trailer behind us when we left. Campsites are gravel, not well kept with old picnic tables. Cows in the field by campsites so it smelled and there are lots of flies. It seems the put all their money into the pool and cater to the outsiders that come for the day.
For real hidden secret pool. I don’t even want to tell people how cool this place is. From the rope swing to the water slide. To having actual real food cooked on a real grill at a pool! And the grill food isn’t even normal pool trash food expensive!!! You can bring in your own cooler, chairs (they don’t have tables or chairs there unless you rent them.) or a giant blanket to spread on and sit on. There is not age or weight limit to use the water slide or pool. My 2.5 year old son went down the slide easily 30 times cause the line moved so fast and he was allowed to wear his float coat. It’s 45 minutes from our house and worth every minute of the drive. We stayed and had a blast for 4 hours. There are no mandatory pool breaks and the life guards are actually watching and are interactive with the guests. Great place. Will absolutely be going again. My husband asked why we would ever go to tanglewood pool again now knowing about home place pool. 10/10 recommend .👀just don’t tell everyone! Keep it a secret
Overall, it is a good place to bring the family for a safe and fun day at the pool. It is more expensive than the community pools but that is because they have tons of lifeguards, diving boards, water slide, and rope swing. Food prices are reasonable. The pool only had a fee band-aids floating in it. The water slide was a big hit with everyone. People vaping and smoking stinks, but there is not much you can do about that since it seems to be fine with the owners. The place is a neat idea, but the no re-entry rule is ridiculous. My friend forgot her phone in the car and was babysitting. She asked if she could go back to her car to get it, and they said she'd have to pay the daily swim fee again. She has a season pass, and the girl said she'd have to charge her $10 to go to her car. I get not wanting to waste money n wristbands but stamp people's hands like they do at Disneyland, baseball stadiums, miseums, and other family-friendly places. I recommended it to friends and would go again.
