Stayed at the RV park and thoroughly enjoyed the spacious, well treed spot. The shower house (pavillion) was super clean.

Ok place to stay for a couple of nights but I wouldn't call it camping. We didn't leave anything out at night or when we left for the day. There is no security or even an employee there during the day unless the golf course is open. Nice bathrooms.

The greens on the pitch and putt are not real. Bucket of balls for driving range was not full. I asked if I could get a full bucket, I was told they don’t fill them up more than what I was given. Although the staff was friendly, the service and quality lacked.

Great and well maintained Par 3 course. My 8 and 6 year olds played the whole thing. Expect a lots of 5 putts on the carpeted greens.
