Country Aire Campground

BUTCH Littell

Stayed at this place for three nights. Place is clean, has a real nice playground, and is close to several area attractions. However, there are several things that did not sit well with us. First, most of the transient sites face each other. This means awning to awning. This is fine if you are camping with other friends. But for those single campers this can be challenging. In our example, the other camper had a dog that was unfriendly towards other dogs. This put both of us in a difficult situation because no one wants a dog fight. Thankfully we worked together and had no incidents. This also causes every conversation to be overheard by the other camper. It's really an odd setup that I have never encountered in 40 plus years of camping. The second concern was when we were leaving and lined up to use the dump station. First, there is only one station. While we were waiting, a worker was on a tractor with a portable dump wagon. He was in front of us and there was a line of campers behind us. When the female manager came out of the camp store and asked us to move forward, I inquired if the worker was going to be dumping their portable tank. I was told "Yes." I said that seems odd seeing there are paying customers waiting to use the dump station. The manager said "Other people had paid to be pumped out." I said that I realize that but it doesn't seem wise to make people wait, especially when there is a line. Now I could understand if the portable tank was full (it was about half as it was see through) and the worker was going to pump out more campers. But this was not the case as the worker emptied the tank, washed it out with a garden hose, and then went and parked the unit on the side of their garage. The worker then mingled around the shop doing absolutely nothing important. The point here is that management did not care at all about their customers waiting in line. I can only guess that they had their money already so they did not care about the customers after their stay? We had planned on sharing this campground with our daughter and her camping friends so they could bring their kids and camp facing each other. But, after realizing that management did not care about their customers, I think it would be in poor taste for us to recommend a place that is disrespectful to their customers. Very poor customer service.

One of the best campgrounds I've ever visited. It's especially great if you've got kids with you -- lots of stuff on site for them to enjoy! Facilities were all immaculately maintained, staff was very friendly, and the homemade maple glazed donuts are worth the price of admission alone. Do yourself a favor a visit, you won't be disappointed.

Overall the grounds are nice. Our site was nice and shaded which helped because the weather was very warm. New playground equipment, pool, store, etc. but the place was full and the bathrooms never got cleaned. I tried both (yes, only two bathrooms in the whole place) for showers and both times I ran out of hot water (25¢ for six mins) and both times I was standing in ankle deep water because they didn’t drain properly. Pool had lots of sand in it. We didn’t go in so I’m not sure if it got cleaned but I doubt it did. There are a few community areas (covered pavilion and fire pit) but no activities planned while we were there. I had a cinnamon roll but didn’t think it was homemade or special. I won’t be back.

Clean and relatively quiet. A well stocked camp store with a small arcade, DVD rentals, and a basic concessions counter. Most sites appear to be seasonal. We found a nice secluded site in the trees for our 5 day stay. It's gated and if you plan to return after the store hours, you'll need to put a $10 deposit on a gate pass. Visitors to your site have to pay entry, although the pool seems accessible... My only complaint is that she showers in our corner were COIN OPERATED which I haven't encountered at any other camp ground. That's not really mentioned anywhere on the website. The lady at the camp store is a bit brisk. Not unfriendly, but doesn't do chit chat or explain the exact way she wants your car pass more than once so pay attention. Lol

It is a nice campground, with a few cabins to rent. Mostly for RV's and tent camping. Nice pool and playground for the kids. Mini store on site. Some parts of the place are a bit dated and need work. But for the most part, great place to spend a weekend. Plenty to do all around the area. Or simple sit and relax.
