Daria gave us this review on 07/03/05. Approx Dates of Stay: 6/30/05 - 7/05/05.

Overall Campground Rating: very good.

What stood out? Good: All sites have trees, weekend activities, quiet hour is enforced, store open later hours on weekends and later still on holiday weekends. Bad: Some sites are a walk to the bath house, dirt roads rough.

Owners and Staff: Owners are great, very friendly. Lots of different faces in the store but all of them were very helpful and friendly.

Camp landscaping and surroundings: Campground is on a mountain and in the woods. All the sites have trees though not all of them are totally private. Our site was on a corner and though we could see the people in the site next to us it was not a problem at all. There is a field for group camping that is open and sunny.

Overall Site Quality: very good

Good/Bad sites: Bad #36 is muddy, a primative tent site. Everything else was okay. Campsite hookups: primitive tent, electric, water, sewer, Campsite Descriptions: sunny and open, wooded, private, semi-private, large and spacious, somewhat small, picnic table, fire ring, group camping area. Variety of sites. In a perfect world you should come take a look and pick your site. Owners are accomodating in trying to get you on the site of your choice.

Seasonal Campers and Campsites: neat and orderly, friendly campers, The couple who do the karaoke are seasonal campers, what fun!

Clean restrooms and showers? yes. Restrooms and showers need updating? no. free showers. Are restrooms accessible from all sites? yes. Additional comments on restrooms and showers: Cleaned several times a day. Shower stalls are small.
