This is a nice little camp ground. They obviously had some heavy rain the days before our arrival and the roads were all regraded and site was dry, well kept. Good water pressure, power feed was clean/constant, and staff were really nice. Kayaking into Spring Lake is super easy. It’s super quiet and watching all the birds is amazing. Stopped at the office to get firewood on the way to dinner. They delivered a double batch while we were gone and left kindling and a fire starter. All for $10. Would stay here again without thinking twice. Thank you!

Our family had so much fun! It's a pretty quiet campground which makes all the amazing nature sounds at night that much easier to hear. Staff was super friendly and helpful, very laid back. Check out the camp store fore FREE popsicle! We enjoyed renting a canoe and doing some fishing. We will definitely be staying again!

This quiet little campground, was surely one of my favorites. The outdoor shower was so neat! The veggies in their garden, that they leave out for campers, were so good! The owners are very kind and accommodating. The campground is clean and well maintained. The firewood was well worth it for the price. The camp store is full of puzzles and games that both my son and I enjoyed! Although my son disliked there wasn't a playground, there are many parks and pools nearby! We very much enjoyed our stay here and highly recommend this place for a peaceful getaway with the prettiest sunsets.

We rate this campground...Excellent. The owners, James and Danika are extremely personable, kind and down to earth. We felt like we've known them forever. The campground was very clean, the outhouses are the cleanest we've ever seen. Our favorite part was the outdoor shower, what a cool experience. The fellow campers were all pleasant and respectful of each other. We look forward to coming back again.
