If you’ve done your homework you know this campground is right along hwy 21 so it can be a bit noisy from time to time. Campground was clean not sure if the water worked as I bring my own. Toilet was very clean and full of TP and no odors floating around my campsite.

We had so much fun with our family. I never did get the pump to work for me for water though.
