Great staff but place is way to tight. It's not camping when its basically a tight parking lot and not much room to park a car minus a few bigger lots. I had to park over my fire pit onto the concrete pad literally right outside my door or on the other side pertruding onto the neighbors lot

We just stayed with family and booked an RV site(217) for us and deluxe cabin (218) for them. This cabin was in such bad shape. They say they're making improvements but I think they should've closed this until it was ready. The sliding door to get in and out is nearly impossible to open and close. The kitchen has a large, long lump in the floor that has tape on it that is right near the fridge and everyone was tripping on it. The toilet seat was very loose and people were nearly falling off it, holes in the deck, broken blinds that don't offer privacy, we had to hang towels and a table cloth up, the dishwasher was out of service, the one banister going up to the cabin was wobbly and almost coming off and looked like someone tried to glue gun it back on. There were also ants in the cabin, it might be from the big holes that are open to the outside under the window a/c units. For over $500 for a weekend, I don't think it was fair to offer a cabin like this.

Great place! The new owners/management has done a great job bringing this campground back to life! It's clean, the workers are very friendly and they have fun activities! Highly recommend!

So we booked for a week at the end of April 2022. We did the booking online and paid for the "pick your site" $35 fee. We called the day of arrival to let them know we would be arriving after hours. I got a voice-mail recording after being directed through an automated setup for over 3 minutes. The voice-mail did not say it belonged to the park, it had a woman's name and said she was unavailable. Since all the automated referred to yogi, I left the message. I got a return call several hours later and was told where our info would be and that the bathhouses were under construction. We arrived to more than a campground with under construction bathhouses ☹️ Our week was spent being woke up by either paving trucks or landscaping trucks or tree removal trucks between 630am and 830am. The basketball court had port-a-pots sitting on it, half the playground was tore up for them to make room for the bounce pillow, the whole putt-putt was destroyed and debris sitting where the putt-putt once was. The lots are not gravel, they are either grown over asphalt or torn up asphalt from the bobcats and tree removal equipment. The Gaga pit did not exist, no access to the pavilion as they were using it for storage. The laundry room was very dirty. Washers and dryers were not clean. One washer sat with green sheets or curtains in it the whole time we were there and the basin had the yogi bear banners sitting in it. I cleaned out 1 washer and 1 dryer and that is all I used while there for our clothes. The plans that SUN OUTDOORS have for this place are great BUT they should NEVER opened for the season while under MASSIVE CONSTRUCTION, especially at $93 a night. If you plan to visit, CALL THEM AND SEE WHEN THEY WILL ACTUALLY BE RUNNING FULL TILT AND WITHOUT ANY CONSTRUCTION!!! I will say that the staff is super friendly! Except for one woman in the office that keeps to her desk and just sort of glares as the other employees talk to the guests 🤷‍♀️ Maybe on a return visit after all the construction, we will be able to give this campground a 5 star rating.
