Stayed here this last week and enjoyed it, the campgrounds were very clean and well maintained. A big shoot out to the girls in the office they were soo nice. The only down side was the picnic table was extremely low, but it definitely ain't a deal breaker thanks

Absolutely love this campground! Off the beaten path, so no loud traffic. The big rig hook ups towards the front of the campground are as level as you could get. The bathhouse was clean. Staff were super nice and helpful. WiFi was pretty decent for the mountains. And the whole reason we came, the pool, was amazing! Our 7 month old had the time of his life! Will definitely be coming back, hopefully... Absolutely love this campground! Off the beaten path, so no loud traffic.

We paid close to 2,000 for 3 nights, as well for 24 armbands. We were 2 tents over limit even tho we used the 2 person small tents and didn’t even use all of our arm bands we paid for. We have been stalked and harassed for $150 more dollars!! We have been talked to and treated very poorly. They definitely don’t have there priorities straight for the past 2 nights our family has been kept up to 4 in the morning from people drinking and screaming all night long when we brought the issue to the manager she said “well I didn’t hear it” and was acting like we were lying… But isn’t no drinking allowed???? DEFINITELY NOT KID FRIENDLY, they let people act however they want!!!! Unless you’re a regular you will be treated bad here. But also not only is it very rude staff but very nasty bathroom and shower conditions due to sewer issues. I would highly recommend saving your money if you’re thinking about visiting here. SMH

Camped for a week and was not impressed at all. Super sites are gravel and not very level, bathhouse is rickety and requires a code to access. The pool needs repair but they just put out cones and it’s been that way at least all summer because we visited for a weekend at the start of summer and it was messed up then. No air conditioning in the arcade or snack bar area very hot in there. Camp store... Camped for a week and was not impressed at all.

No air conditioning in the arcade or snack bar area very hot in there. Camp store is very poorly stocked. Was probably a nice place in its day but now it’s run down and outdated. Not to mention they sell day passes to the pool so it’s full of locals and campers can’t really enjoy it.

Disappointed by New Ownership and Excessive Rules We’ve been coming to this campground for years and always enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and friendly vibe. Unfortunately, our recent visit under the new ownership was a completely different experience. The new owners have implemented a laundry list of rules that go well beyond reasonable expectations for a family campground. We understand the need for order and respect for others, but the strict enforcement felt more like staying at a military base than a relaxing getaway. We saw several fellow campers getting warned for minor infractions, and the owners seemed to patrol constantly rather than interact in a friendly or welcoming way. The charm and laid-back feel this place once had is gone. It’s clear the focus is now on rigid control rather than hospitality. Sadly, we won’t be returning unless things change. There are plenty of other campgrounds that manage to keep things clean and respectful without making guests feel like they’re under surveillance.
