I would say I was asked about 5 times during my stays during the day. Visitor checkout is not until 11:00- so why keep asking? The group of campers I was...

The listing and website information was absolutely untrue and this is evident the second you arrive there [at which point we should have turned around and left like so many had after we arrived].

What stood out? Pine Acres was very pretty and best suited for rv's. I had a rustic cabin that had a clean bathroom very close but no showers. The showers were horrible compared to other spots I have been. Activites were limited due to many things not being opened when you wanted them, like arcade only 3 hours a night. The pool from 11-7 and then no teenagers were permitted in. If you have very young children or are much older maybe you would enjoy it here....

Approx Dates of Stay: 8/13-8/15/04. Overall Campground Rating: fair-average. What stood out? Our site was so small, we couldn't open our awning. The office connected a cable for the camper next door to us across our site to the next cable box. When we came in after dark, my husband tripped and hurt his hip. Dump station was situated right in front of a row of campsites. Cable only got 4 channels, a few more if one wanted to pay an extra $4/day. We got 7 channels with just our...

Approx Dates of Stay: 6/07-6/09/2002. Overall Campground Rating: horrible. If Hanna Barbera stayed here the place would be closed ! This place gives Yogi a bad name ! Once you finally find the place, because the directions are terrible...You will find cramped, dirty campsites. Dirty "dis"comfort stations. Too much vehicle traffic. If you want a real laugh, try the mini golf ! What a JOKE ! There is a giant rotting Yogi...
