This campground is extremely well maintained. All facilities were clean and well maintained-stocked. The camp host was delightful-welcoming, willing to answer any questions, and was actively monitoring check-in and check-out. Loved our 3 day stay and would highly recommend!

The area is beautiful, the facilities are nicely kept, and the campground host was extremely friendly and welcoming. We had a wonderful stay over the Labor Day holiday, the last night was secluded and quiet because the holiday was over. Mr. Hill, the host, was super accommodating and very knowledgeable about the surrounding area. We would definitely stay here again!

Paul, the host is wonderful. Be careful late summer/early fall, lots of hornets. Still had a great time.

We had a great time! So much fun, however, there were quite a few hornets in the area.
