This place is amazing! From the first time my crew came here, this place has been “home”! I love the people running the camp ground. They are always available on line or at the store. They do close the store to work on the grounds. They put so much love into the work they do here and it shows. The holloween event is the best!!

It was quiet and clean. Disappointed in the office was never open, we paid in advance and never saw anyone. Bath house near the front needs updating.

We have been coming here for a few years now. It’s such a nice quiet campground. The owners really put in a lot of work each year in improvements. And they are easily accessible if you have any questions. They have a really nice store with the best ice cream. While it is a nice quiet campground, the owners do a lot around holidays and such to put on special events. We loved it so much after spending a few weekends here and there over the years that we now have a seasonal campsite for two years now.

My family has been coming here for 20 years, years ago they installed wifi and it was great. Now it doesn't work and our Verizon cellphones barely work here. If you want to get away from technology, this is the place to be. Don't expect to work remotely here. We are hoping the new owners get the hang of running this place, it is nice but maintenance seems to be lacking. Fishing is great here and the lots are a bit bigger than other campgrounds.
