Customer Reviews
We were there for a week. Friends from Michigan joined us. As they were all hooked up and leaving with their RV and their jeep hooked up behind it the air brakes malfunctioned on their rig and brakes wouldn’t release. Called several places for help, some would not travel to us, some wouldn’t work on an RV or air brakes. I happened to see the owner driving in, Russ, and flagged him down. He made some calls and had help out to us in an hour and a half. Our friends wound up staying an additional night for the repairs but I don’t know what we would have done if not for Russ. This is an amazing, clean, beautifully maintained camp ground! Sites are awesome! Cave tour is great! Cabins are awesome! The owners are wonderful, friendly, and helpful! Highly recommend and we’ve been there twice and look forward to reserving next year! Highly recommend! Hidden gem right here!
We really like this camp ground. Stream runs through, waterfall, fishing lake and many others. Great location for a base in the fall to drive to the river for fall leave viewing. Kids have taken the cave tour and stayed in a cabin. We take the camper. There is train tracks that run next to camp ground and trains do come through occasionally. Great playground area with nice equipment.
This is our first time here and it was awesome. We loved how spacious the spots were and how clean and well maintained the campground was. We went hiking in the morning and did the mining and boat tour in afternoon. We end the night fishing in the catch and release pond b4 having a fire down by the stream whilst the kids played across the rd at the park. There's something for everyone weather it's fishing basketball volleyball or hiking. We even drove 10 mins to explore Praire Du Chien. Will definitely come again.
This campground initially appeared beautiful. Property is well maintained as far as lawn care and we had a trout stream right behind us. The lack of mosquitoes was also a big plus. However, the beach is extremely small and the water is filthy. I’m also comparing it to other beaches we’ve been to. Also, the trains that go through blaring horns at all hours of the night are quite annoying. Obviously not something they have control over but nonetheless difficult to sleep through. Also, keep in mind that this campground allows UTVs and they are everywhere and they are LOUD. The rules state no driving after 10pm but that was clearly not enforced and I was even told not to worry about driving hours when I rented a golf cart. The office hours are strange. They close at 5:30 on the weekends which is bizarre as that’s when most of your guests are there. The cave tour was fun and quite enjoyable and the shop is very nice. Ice cream was delicious as well and staff was friendly. It overall was not bad, but I would most likely not stay there again.
They will charge you extra for any tent larger than a 2 person tent, so no family tents/kid tents. There are no age limits on the cave tour, and unfortunately there was a baby who cried a majority of the tour, making it hard for our guide to give us information on the cave. There were two different trains that ran in the middle of the night, and one must have had a maintenance issue, causing sparks to fly and water to be sprayed onto our tent and vehicles driving on the tracks passed our site all night. I understand that isn't something the campground controls, but site placement is. Definitely not worth the money.
We really enjoyed our stay here at Spook Cave. We camp in lots of different places and I felt this was a very clean, well kept campground. They take pride in their location and to us, it showed with how neat and clean everything was. The Cave tour was great! We had Cole the first time and We had Brent our second round. Both did a great job and were very personable! You will have a great time if you go. BEULAH FALLS are beautiful and really cold which was great for our hot weather we had. The only downfall which isn't the campgrounds fault is there were lots of bugs (flies and mosquitos mostly). Prepare for citronella, bug soother spray( they sold it and it does work) and lots of swatting around if you don't. The only suggestion would be to use a different cleaner in the bathrooms for the smell if possible (ammonia smell was a little strong), however these were the cleanest bathrooms I've ever been to at a campground, so they may be onto something! I saw them working in there and they did a great job! Can't wait to return in the future. Great campground experience even with a torrential downpour!
We had the best time at SpookCave this morning! We took our three young children and four adults for the cave tour. There is a great playground and areas for the kids to play while waiting for your tour. We had Brody and he was great!! Very knowledgeable about the cave, its history, and had a great sense of humor! Definitely would recommend.
