We've camped here seasonally for years. It's perfect for young families - swing sets, game room, ice cream; teens - basketball, volleyball, pond for fishing; retired folks - shuffleboard, BINGO, golf cart rides... Fun family events for the holidays. (They ARE picky about site construction and not consistent with the rules) - otherwise A+ establishment.

We spent 3 nights at this campground and were very happy with the experience. It’s mostly occupied by seasonal and full time RVs but it was well maintained and quiet. We’ll be returning soon.
