Nice campground, lots of things for kids. They have a playground, a large field with a baseball backstop, a sand volleyball court and good bike riding too. The bathrooms were clean and the showers were hot. The hike around the pond was nice and they have paddle boats and I saw people with Kayaks. I enjoyed the campground.
The good: very peaceful at night and they offer discounts on the Passport America list. The bad: the price is still high for what they offer. The single shower house has not very warm push button showers. The ugly: camp hosts were not friendly at all! No waving, even when we waved at them. No Hello, No smiles, just a complete lack of hospitality or warmth. Also, someone opened our trailer door while here, but we think they were just inebriated and it was an error.
Second visit here. The first was June 2021 and we just did a long weekend before Thanksgiving. Trails are nice, clean camping area, nice staff.
Really nice campground, very shady and beautiful in the fall. Hardly anyone there in mid October. Sites are spacious and there’s a nice nature trail to walk around the pond. We had water and electric at our site and there is a dump station on your way out. Showers could use some updating, but otherwise we’re clean. Cell signal is 2 bars LTE with Verizon. Would stay again if in the area.
The park has very well kept trails and playgrounds. The camp spots are a little small. My only complaint is the camp host (or grounds keppers) do not clean up the sites at all. The campground roads and sites are covered in leaves which is very frustrating. We do not use the bath houses
