I had a wonderful 1 month stay at Bees RV Resort. The staff was always so helpful and friendly. The activities they offered were great. When I get back down that way, I would definitely stay there again.

I asked to be under a tree, because I have plants in my van, they are for oxygenation at night. It rained all night, I was in a mud hole next morning. Asked for a 110 hookup, got a 330, they said that is what I requested, moved me the next day so I could plug in my jackery, then moved me again to another tree, could smell sewer everytime someone flushed, and the space was an ant hill, also elec... I asked to be under a tree, because I have plants in my van, they are for oxygenation at night. It rained all night, I was in a mud hole next morning. Asked for a 110 hookup, got a 330, they said that is what I requested, moved me the next day so I could plug in my jackery, then moved me again to another tree, could smell sewer everytime someone flushed, and the space was an ant hill, also electric did not work, they had to come replace the outlet. Pool was nice, but needed to be cleaned, restrooms smelled like sewer also. They were clean, and the showers and laundry were an added plus. The staff were pleasant, and tried very hard to be accommodating. The spaces were way too close together, it was unnerving to have windows looking right into yours. Would never stay here again. Did not tell my friends about all the problems. I hope you all the best, blessed be.

This is truly an RV Resort that deserves the name Resort. The staff is so nice and helpful. The Resort is very well maintained. Grass always cut, common areas clean, no junk in front of people's spots, many activities, safe and quiet. I hope to be back one day. Thanks to all the office and maintenance staff for all the great work they do !

The individuals who took the photos of the campground deserve an award! Campground looks run down comparatively. And the roads are way too tight. The picture that shows campers on the cobblestones, yeah, that’s only a few spots. Otherwise, looks like you are in a parking lot. The price is way too expensive compared to other local campgrounds. Staff weren’t friendly either after we said we were goi... The individuals who took the photos of the campground deserve an award! Campground looks run down comparatively.

Just off 27 easy access in and out when light traffic. It does get a little noisy from road noise if you are in one of the rows close to the highway. Office is very accommodating, friendly and helpful. There was always something to do! A lot of activities and events. People are really friendly. Truly enjoyed our time there.
