Nice campsite with decent amenities. Pretty scenic and the restrooms were nearby our site which I wanted and it looks like most of the sites are close enough to restrooms.

“The restrooms are exceptionally clean, and the campground is maintained to a very high standard. The staff are highly attentive, consistently ensuring the comfort and safety of guests, and their professionalism and friendliness create a welcoming environment. The children had an amazing time riding their bikes and left very happy with the experience.”

We had a blast at this campground! It was very clean and well maintained. The camp host and staff were very nice and informative. It was a very relaxing experience. I would definitely recommend this campground.

After 15 years of camping, I’ve met a lot of hosts… but Nick and his wife are in a league of their own. Friendly, approachable, and quick to respond no matter what you need. This was my first time camping here, and despite running into some RV (Ruined Vacation) issues pulling into the campsite, a tough situation, they made it a far better experience than I could have hoped for. The next day, they checked in on me and did everything they could to help get me back on the road. They’re sharp, practical, and offer solid advice without any fluff. You can tell they genuinely care about your experience and aren’t just going through the motions. Beyond their hospitality, the campsite itself reflects their dedication and pride. They make regular rounds throughout the day, maintaining organization, cleanliness, and handling tasks that most hosts would be lazy with, or simply often skip altogether. It’s clear they take real ownership in making sure the whole area is welcoming and comfortable for campers. The campsites are nicely spaced apart, offering plenty of privacy and a peaceful feel. The shade trees around the sites provide a welcome break from the sun, making the atmosphere even more relaxing. My dogs absolutely loved it here with plenty of room to roam safely and plenty of shaded spots to lounge in. Over the course of my stay, it became clear that they don’t just see guests as visitors, they cultivate genuine connections grounded in empathy and kindness. Developing a friendship with them felt natural, yet professional, reflecting their commitment to hospitality. They set the standard for what great camp hosts should be… helpful, empathetic, and on the ball. If you get the chance to camp here, know that you’ll be in great hands. Any campground lucky enough to have them on board is immediately a better place to camp — seriously, they raised the whole experience.

The new management service is 100x better than the group that was running this campground for the last few years 💯. Restrooms were clean. Campsites were well kept. Best of all, the camp hosts are FRIENDLY! Imagine that. We've been coming here for about 10 years. When the weather is good this place is great. Close to a couple restaurants and the small store if you forget any essentials or want a tasty meal. The loops that you can't reserve have some of the best sites. Little insider secret 🙊.
