I wish I could give this a 0 star. The owners are terrible people. Anyone that said otherwise is there friends and they drink and party with them every night. My family camped there for over 20 years and have been a seasonal there for close to 10 years. This year, the owners took away our rights and freedoms and we pulled out. The owners claim that it's a "Family Campground" however, if your family is over the age of 18. They are not welcome to be there. Ownership always said " the Campground office never closes by 8pm." However, when I would come to visit my parents. I would walk up there to check in, since I'm a guest in ownerships eyes and visiting hours go till 10pm, I figured the office would be open and It wasn't. My parents were told that the office must know who is coming to visit them by 7pm which is when the office closes. The posted hours on the office do not reflect this however. The Ownership constantly makes assumptions about people telling others that people are unfriendly and avoiding them. I am one of the most friendly people. I'm quiet, and don't like it when people act like there better than everyone, so yes I'm unfriendly to you. But as the owners its your responsibility to be friendly to everyone always. Being friendly does not mean threatening law enforcement, lawyers, and kicking people out. It is also ownerships responsibility to ensure there in compliance with state and federal regulations. I have seen the owners defer this responsibility to the campers. They have noticed people not complying and do nothing about it. However they expect campers to know all the rules that are set by the state and federal government and follow them or else. They are also inconsistent with there own rules. Some people get written notices that there breaking rules and others just get kicked out. You are constantly being watched here. The cameras are everywhere and that's all the lady does is watch them and when you act out. You're assumed you are guilty by the owners and will be punished. Owners are extremely rude. We were talking to friends that we have made through the years and they essentially came up to us and yelled at us saying we can't talk to them. DO NOT GO HERE. You are always a target in there game. The owners are terrible and only care about themselves and there property. They do not care about the campers or the property that you rent from them. However, if they have a problem with their house it gets fixed right away. Your water isn't working, well you'll have to wait a week. Everything they have done in this place is for themselves. They recently put in a game room. The only reason is because the owners do not want the kids running in their store by them and annoying them while they watch the cameras. They are not people friendly and do not care about the customers. They are the most unprofessional people. Hopefully they hang it up soon and get out so this place can be great again like it once was before they took ownership.

New owners are kinda a bit too Karen for my taste... Used to be a much more enjoyable and inviting atmosphere. Long time annuals pulling out left and right.

I planned to just visit my grandkids for an hour or so on a Sunday afternoon. I had never been there before; I was waiting for my family to return from fishing somewhere nearby. While walking around I was startled by a woman yelling “what number campsite are you at?” When I tried to explain she said that I cannot just go walking around doing whatever I want and that I needed to pay $5.00. I later learned that she was the owner. She was very abrasive; I felt embarrassed and unwelcomed. I paid the money, dropped off a pie to the kids and left shortly thereafter.
