Loved camping here! The only thing I didn’t like is the camp sites are not reserved for you. You kind of crowd in where you can fit! The bathrooms were ok. It was a good price compared to other camp sites! I made this review a year ago and we just returned this past weekend and got a whole different experience! The bathrooms were very neglected!

The bathrooms were ok. It was a good price compared to other camp sites! I made this review a year ago and we just returned this past weekend and got a whole different experience! The bathrooms were very neglected! There were spiders covering the bathrooms so much so that my 9 year old daughter was so scared to go she crapped her self! This place has gone down hill significantly! It is still based on first come first serve which kind of sucks because half the time you are split from your group. It is way worse than last year!!! I don’t think we will be back! I was very disappointed!!!

Never coming back! We called the evening before arriving to book a tent site. We were told by Brie a wooden picnic table was no problem and they would make it work for us. Upon arrival, we called to let Brie know we arrived and asked about a picnic table as there was not one at our site. Brie rudely replied, " We spoke about this yesterday. If you can find one you can load it up and take it to... Never coming back! We called the evening before arriving to book a tent site. We were told by Brie a wooden picnic table was no problem and they would make it work for us. Upon arrival, we called to let Brie know we arrived and asked about a picnic table as there was not one at our site. Brie rudely replied, " We spoke about this yesterday. If you can find one you can load it up and take it to your site. " That is NOT what we spoke about. One was to be taken to our site! ( My husband is disabled and couldn't lift one and I was unable to do it on my own. Thanks, Brie 😡 ) The next day we called with a question and had to leave a message. NO RETURN CALL. This is NOT how you treat guests. The bathrooms were not cleaned the whole time we were there and obviously not for months before our arrival. Crap all over the toilets, soap dispenser was disgusting, showers were filthy and nowhere to dry and change but IN THE SHOWER, and trash both inside and outside were overflowing. No ventilation in the bathrooms. It was upper 90's during our stay. I don't care how close it was to the river, I wouldn't stay there again. Neighbors were rudely loud, and no instructions but the bathroom code. Seems they make their money off of permanent camper sites, and have no regard to others.

Rv location was great. The view truly beautiful. The facilities need some love but the gentlemen that work here were kind and helpful. Would recommend this place and definitely will come back. Although I would say this is definitely not a RV resort.

Its beautiful, nice owners, the bathrooms were a little rough, people were loud but expected to be while camping. The water was nice was hard to go boating as the plans were putting out the fire across the river. Other wards it was a great experience
