We loved that the grass was cut and a lot of the brush had been cleared out. It's by far our favorite place to get away from it all!! We will definitely be back next season. The only negative is the bathroom is always nasty

We have been to this site before and thought it would be a good spot next to the water, however over Labor Day weekend we showed up to the site and within five minutes my daughter was complaining of bugs on her legs. We looked and she had tiny ticks all over. This was only in a matter of minutes of being at the site. After that discovery we all found several ticks all over ourselves. We packed up and immediately left as we have dealt with this before at a different campsite. We were there less than minutes before packing up. Not worth the risk. We all walked away with several itchy tick bites.

Due to a miserable camping trip I request a refund in full. The grass was uncut causing insects to be horrendous, there were no access to the water for fishing due to unkept location, no water what so ever for refilling drinking water anywhere on the grounds, bathrooms were terrible and nasty. I’ve camped for several years at many locations and I’ve never been to a location I wasn’t able to stay at for the time allotted but this was just unbearable totally give this location a 1 star and only because there was a boat dock that I give it this. I rented two location and request a full refund for these location and I request you fire the grounds keeper at that location.
