We have stayed at Codger’s Cove for the past two years and can say that we have really enjoyed the resort. The resort is very well maintained, clean and well managed. There are many fun activities planned throughout the season to entertain adults and kids. I would highly recommend Codger’s Cove!

We have been at Codgers Cove for 3 years now. Very friendly atmosphere. Lots of adult activities on the weekends. Good fishing lake, especially for pan fish on the docks. Well maintained and clean bathrooms are a Plus!

Facilities are fantastic (super clean). The permanent campers are wonderfully friendly. There are not a lot of weekend campsites, and the beach is pretty dirty (some sort of blue algae), but overall, it's a great place to camp. Oh, and be prepared for the train nearby.
