Pat is an amazing host. She makes the campground special. We love it there and can't wait to go back. Dave was ok too. And thank you to the boys who delivered our wood. They were great . Nikki is amazing in the store as well.

Great campground. I’ve stayed in a lot growing up camping and then doing some as an adult. The property is attractive with nicely wooded sites and plenty of space between. The owners are friendly and very accommodating. We needed a last minute reservation after a motorcycle breakdown and missing the reservation window at a state campground. They were open late into the fall and got us taken care of easily. Lastly, the showers/bathrooms are nice which is pretty important if you’re not in a trailer. Overall 5 stars and I’d go back.

This was our 2nd time here. Loved it. The camp sites are huge and very woodsy. The staff is outstanding. It's a family friendly, pet friendly park. Very quiet. We will be back again next year.

Delicious breakfast at The Kitchen. Phenomenal staff all around. We'll come back as soon as possible. This welcoming place is like no other we've seen, and we've been traveling the US by RV for more than 10 years.
