Traveling from NY escaping the winter and stopped in here. Incredibly friendly and responsive staff. The grounds were clean and the campground was quiet. The hiking trail is by the water and it is well maintained. The electric and water hookups were perfect. Stayed 2 weeks, and I will definitely be back! Thanks for a great experience

This campground is one of the nicest places to visit. The only thing that has recently changed is it is very noisy. Every morning at 5:30a.m. They clean the pickle ball courts with a blower. It will ECHO across the campground. Then if they decided to cut wood with a chain saw. Well that is loud too. It may happen morning hours as well. So, if you think you are going to sleep in, thank again... This campground is one of the nicest places to visit. The only thing that has recently changed is it is very noisy.

The staff is very helpful and nice. Most of them live at the campground. They have a lot of activities during the year that are free to participate in. Come join the fun at the Waterpark. It is just walking distance. Tennis courts and pickle ball. No pool on sight. No internet. That is very misleading. Fishing is in walking distance. Golfing is next door. Walking trails are very nice. They even have a putting range you can walk to. A lot available without the need to drive around everywhere.

Nice basic campground with full hookups. Two-thirds or more of the sites are for long-term stays, but at least all short-term sites are grouped together in loop A. Office, camp store, and laundry are all central. Shower houses were dated but clean.
