Large campsite with a natural pool in the center, it was very busy on the weekend. We moved from the site they initially gave us to another site on the other side of the campsite. We were there one night on the weekend so it was very busy and with lots of dogs. The water connection point is far from the location where you can park the caravan directly. Friendly neighbors lent us an extension hose... Large campsite with a natural pool in the center, it was very busy on the weekend.

We stayed a week here with our kids. We all had a great time. There was an activity for everyone to enjoy while also still feeling calm. We will absolutely be back in the future.

Tent camper here, it was nice! Electric and water hookups at each tent site makes it a breeze. Very clean facilities and easily accessible, no matter where you are. Plenty of activities to keep busy: corn hole, walking trails, horseshoe, kickball/baseball field, playground for children, designated swimming area, designated fishing pond. The store is stocked with everything you may need or forget!... Tent camper here, it was nice! Electric and water hookups at each tent site makes it a breeze.

If you want to feel secluded & alone this might not be the one for you.

Just got home from a Friday-Sunday quick get away. Decided to stay close to MA so found this suggested park from RV Life. AMAZING time. The RV space was a pull through and was well kept. Neighbors were VERY hospitable. Park office and Staff were friendly, professional, polite and very helpful for all questions and purchase while on site. BEAUTIFUL well kept area, reasonably priced, ponds were well... Just got home from a Friday-Sunday quick get away. Decided to stay close to MA so found this suggested park from RV Life. AMAZING time.

Paddle boats, canoes, tons to do there! Many fun events happening and the evening DJ was an unexpected treat! Definitely a 5 Star place! No blackwater service, just a dump when leaving. Wasn't a problem especially with full shower bathrooms available 24hrs. LOVED the Staff and look forward to many getaways to Quarry!
