Customer Reviews
It’s a nice campground for a weekend getaway also they had public hunting 🦌
I would like to start out by saying that this is truly a lovely area. I have AT&T and had no reception. I climbed the hill that is behind the pond and about half way up I got service. I camped alone with my dog. I woke up several times from several vehicles that stopped in front of my sight and shined flash lights in my van. They couldn’t see me because I had curtains up and I use a UV coating to keep anyone from seeing in. I left the sight at 12:30 in the morning and drove home. The cards you have to fill out and put in your window really alerts the people that are curious as to how many are present. Use deep woods spray many ticks.there are 2 ponds. I didn’t get a bite.
It's a nice campground for a weekend getaway. Secluded and peaceful, there are trails to bring your horses and ride them.
For a FREE campground there isn’t much to complain about. I’d like to see better bathrooms installed and more signs to each part of the park with donations. Great for small campers, horses/trailers and primitive camping.
I had read that there were around 14 spots for campers but when we arrived, there only appeared to be 3 total and two of them were occupied. The area was very nice and the bathroom was clean and adequately stocked. Since all of the spots were very close by, there was quite a bit of noise from the folks next door with their generator. Even in the dark, the campground was very easy to find
