I recently camped here....... campsites are too close together, They cut down all these trees to make more sites, almost no tent sites any more. Staff is consistently driving around and using gas engines to cut weeds, too much noise from this. pavilion has almost no games anymore. not even a pinball machine!!!

First time here. It is huge, beautifully laid out and a well managed facility. Something for everyone! Kids of any age will love it. And the live entertainment this Labor Day weekend, Tailor Made, was great!

Love this place! The creek, the pool and the waterslides were all big hits with the kids. Camp sites in the 500 level along the woods were very spacious, cant wait to come back next year!

My wife and I took our 9 year old for the long holiday weekend. After reading reviews about the campground being very family oriented, we thought it was the place for us. But we were wrong! Upon arrival, we were greeted by 2 rude women in the store at check in. One was the manager of the campground (Gina). We chocked up there behavior as them being overwhelmed and busy. We wish that our bad experience stopped there but it didn’t! As we made our way down the hill to our campsite, seasonal campers screamed at us and told us to slow down. Speed limit throughout the park is 5mph…I was going 7mph…We finally made it down 3 levels to our campsite (which was very nice). After an hour drive our 9 year old had to go to the bathroom so while we unhooked there camper she went to the bathroom and they were absolutely disgusting. Stall doors didn’t lock, hair all over the showers and only one working sink. Again, we tried to chock it up to them being busy but we soon learned that this was not the case. No matter what time day or night during our entire 4 day weekend, the bathrooms were horrific. They were not cleaned once yet members of staff drive around on golf carts all day! We booked this campground thinking there would be tons for our kid to do but the “arcade” was 2 claw machines. One was broken and the other one has ripped teddy bears in it. 4th of July night we were at a friends camp site up on the 3rd level and when arriving back to our site during quiet arrives we were greeted by sheriff vehicles and a lot of commotion. Loud fire works that sounded like grenades were being set off for a few hours. Come to find out, the police tackled an innocent black woman because members of the staff were racial profiling. Yet again I wish it stopped there. Our last day before checking out was the only nice day weather wise. (Not there fault) but the pool was green and absolutely disgusting they shut it down and didn’t reopen it. So we had to take the kids down to the creek to swim for a few hours before heading out. If I could give this place zero stars I would. I would 10/10 NOT recommend and will 100% NEVER go back!

Traffic is going to be terrible when I leave and we almost certainly won't get there by 8 pm when the camp store closes. Is there a gate that closes that prevents people from getting to their camp sites?

Molly Kendrick | Jun 24, 2021
Samantha Gauvreau | Jun 25, 2021

No. You can drive in and they will leave an envelope on the door for you with all of your camp information
