We ❤️ it here, and we're seasonal, campers. It's quiet, and nestled on a nice, dirt, back road, located in Hopeville Pond. There's always plenty of activities for all ages. It's not a huge campground, but large enough. The staff works very hard to keep things great. Patty, the camp manager, is more than helpful, and very patient. She has always addressed our questions, and is one of the hardest, working, people I know. This campground, should be so happy, they have her. Jim, is the events coordinator, and is very dedicated in planning, fun, weekend events. You know, it's going to be a fun time, when all your campground neighbors, show up for an event, because, Jim has planned it. Everyone here, is very friendly, and making new friends, is easy. Neighbors are always willing to help out, and just take care of each other. The campground is making, new, better, changes, but like anything, change takes a bit of time, especially after the very, harsh winter. The staff is working 110% , ALL the time, to make everything updated, so this campground will stand out. I know, that my husband and I, recognize their hard work, every day. You know what's great about this place.,.we love that it's a great secret, 3.1 miles to our home, on this beautiful, little pond, that people are beginning to talk about. It truly is awesome, to be able it sit around your campfire at night, have great conversations with your friends, and hear all the incredible sounds of "night nature" , amplifying off the pond. Jump in my kyack, grab my camera, and watch the pair of Bald Eagles, osprey, herons, and many species of ducks. Fishing here is incredible! I'm not good at it, by my neighbors are!!! I love it here. Oh wait, did I already say that 😁
Needed a place to stay for a few months. Very helpful and still had activities in October. Some need to remember dogs need to be leashed even in the campsite. Many sites but you have enough space to call your own. Close to town but still can enjoy the woods!
Very peaceful, everybody gets along. Golf carts are allowed. Very smooth transition with new owners.. the campground is getting better (and cleaner) every day ! We've been seasonal for 16 years and we still love it here.
We're seasonal campers here...our camp manager is awsome...its a great place for us...great neighbors..awsome experience..
Patty was a wonderful hostess. In 10 years of camping, we NEVER received a welcome package containing free firewood and a personalized sign. Had fun with the planned Saturday night activities!
