From Revolutionary War sites to charming small towns with local shops and restaurants, there's plenty to discover.

This is one of the best campgrounds around the area! The staff is great. They made the process very easy And even though it’s like woods around, it’s you still don’t feel like you’re just alone in the middle of the woods somewhere lol Thank you guys for the pleasant stay❤️❤️

The campground ground was bought and taken over y a new company my 1st season. They promised many upgrades and improvements. In our 4 seasons we observed bandaids as fixes and more work done by seasonal and year round campers than the staff! Campers have complained about damage and theft from their sites but it fell on deaf ears. No security was ever hired and the campground has no way of limiting the general public from entering. If it wasn’t for the campers we made friends with we would have left sooner. On a side note, I’ve been out of the campground 4 months and they still haven’t applied my electricity deposit to my last electric bill and till owe me the remaining balance as a refund.

Very friendly and well kept campground. It doesn't have the "in the woods" feeling of staying in a state forest, or the amenities of an upscale campground, but it isn't trying to be either of those things. They are a nice, small, quiet campground with a nice pool, lake, and a few events each weekend. Not too expensive either. We love it for a nice time away with the kids and absolutely recommend t...
