Charmaine Out On Bail Band Aug 04

Out on bail band performed on Aug 3rd . We had a blast . People are very friendly . Place is very clean . I loved the store very clean and so much to purchase there. I even loved they have special bones on the counter for your dogs. Something for everyone. Ross Girard that did hire us stayed through our performance and was a very big help. He also stayed up until the time we packed up. Very nice. Everyone is pleasant. We had a blast and would definitely love to come back and hopefully even camp there. Specially hanging up our American Flag made me so Proud . God Bless America. Charmaine & the Out On Bail Band , We Thank you all for welcoming us in your beautiful place. Thank you

We have been camping here at RBCA for a very long time and have enjoyed our time here. The Owners and staff have always been pleasant, very helpful. If you need something they are right there to help. Unfortunately, this past weekend there where some college students that came in to stay in tents for an event they were attending over the weekend, simple process-make a reservation and pay your fee. Well there were 21 reservations made and well over 200 people that just kept coming in, did not pay, did not follow the rules, speed limit is 5mph, they did not slow down when asked to. Long story short… most of the tenters in this group were very disrespectful to the owners, staff and other paying campers. They even placed very rude stickers on someone’s brand new truck! When asked not to return the next day, they packed their tents and left, yelling vulgar names at the owners and staff and driving at an excessive speed- speed limit is 5 mph for a reason. I feel bad for the ones that followed the simple process and made a reservation, they did not get to enjoy the campground because of the many others that didn’t. Thank you Ross and Buffy, we had a great season and can’t wait to come back next year! Oh, these are some of the pictures, mostly the ones that didn’t make a reservation, wanted to start a bonfire without even asking, how rude!

We enjoyed a wonderful weekend. Everyone was welcoming and made the campground feel like a home away from home. The grounds were well cared for. The live music venue at the pavilion was second to none This is a great community. We will definitely be back again.

We visited Running Bear Camp a few weeks ago and felt the need to share what we found. This campground may have once been nice and maybe could be again but right now its neglected and ran down. The sites, which were mostly permanent camps, were in bad need of some gravel, the bath/shower room was nasty, laundry was in a room that looked like it was for storage and there was a trailer behind it that looks like it was full of garbage. Sadly what we found was nothing like what their website described or showed.

Thank goodness they were open when most everyone else was closed for winter. However the showers & restrooms were extremely nasty. The shower was nothing but exposed pvc pipes. Overall it was a good place to stay since everywhere else was closed.
