At Acorn Acres everyone is like family. Always something fun and special going on. It is the most beautiful campground I’ve ever been to. I have been seasonal here for 13 years and it’s just an amazing place to be. The campground is well maintained and all of the people running it work very hard and so kind.

This was my family’s first time staying at a campground just based on Google searches and proximity to the activities we wanted to do. I had no idea what to expect, we were pleasantly surprised. I don’t know why the cute trail with cardboard animals isn’t more advertised but it was so fun and a great surprise! The property is clearly very well maintained and cleaned. The campground itself is amazing. That being said, the actual seasonal/other campers are what truly made our trip. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, was so incredibly nice, welcoming, and felt like immediate friends. (Yes you, Sue and Scott❤️)Within a few hours we were welcomed by many other campers who then continued to always say Hello. The community makes it or breaks it and these people made it. Definitely worth a stay!!

Nice camp ground. Great staff, questionable residents. Camps for rent are so basic, no amenities, no water, no bathroom, and prison style bed set up. The ground would have been more comfortable than the illusion of a bed. Only good part was no bugs inside the 4 wood walls and there was electricity.

As a new camper to the area - we felt like we have been there all along. Great area for families. Tons of fun.
