Great place to relax with family and friends. Very family oriented. We have been coming here for years and will continue to visit every year. Amazing fishing as well.

Do you like fishing at public boat ramps and have people that think they own the place walk right into your fishing area, walk all over your fishing gear to say they want to see how much the river came up when there’s 9 other spots to see that then this is the spot for you!!! When asked why they felt the right to walk through my camp and stand on my gear I was told by some guy drinking and driving...

When asked why they felt the right to walk through my camp and stand on my gear I was told by some guy drinking and driving a golf card “Well my my old lady is president of Woodland Campground and it’s my job and right to see how flooded it is”. Being the president’s secretary does that give you the right to drink and drive and walk into peoples camp on public property too?

Ask around you will see different people are held to different standards. I asked around and learned that women were not allowed to vote on internal issues. Ask around and run from these supremest.

We got our first campsite there in 1989/1990. I was 5yrs old. We camped there until I was mid 30s. I was tired of the 50-60yr old teenagers with subwoofers on their golf cart piss drunk at 3am headed to the river. Place isn't what it used to be. Sold our 11 lots, 5 sheds, gazebo, giant camper 2 decks. Just times have changed. No respect.

We found ourselves in need of help with s blown tire and nobody willing to help us on 4th of July weekend. They were VERY gracious and allowed us to stay over until I could get a replacement set of tires. Pure hospitality at its finest. Great people.
