Money hungry fun killers. We sold for half of what it was worth and happy to do so.

We have two family cabins here. And we make the best memories at the lake. They have boat mooring, kayaks, swimming pool, hot tub, and a church with amazing views. There is mini golf and a park, many bathrooms and laundromat facilities. Sometimes, there is a spa open and a restaurant. Planned activities for holidays are a thing also. Highly recommend 👌

A lovely private campground with a wide range of sites for sale. The campground has access to Lake Merwin, a pool, playground, mini-golf, hiking access and lots of other amenities. It's an excellent place for families to enjoy the outdoors together.

Absolutely jaw dropping. I was blessed with the opportunity to accompany my family to Lake Merwin Camper's Hideaway yesterday, August 3rd of 2024, and I am longing for my planned return to be my present. Excellent place to take the kids for a long weekend, or for a special occasion with your significant other. Although it is a private membership community, if you get the invite to enjoy a weekend...
