We have traveled full-time for five years and Crazy Horse Campground stands out as one of our top stops. The property is beautiful and well-kept. The new managers are hardworking and wonderful, making the entire park feel like home. The entire place was decorated for Halloween. They offered hay rides, fall festival games, a haunted trail, and other great activities for the entire family. They even cook tasty food on the weekends. The value for the price is incredible and it was a peaceful place to stay. And with what they plan to do in the off-season, next year will be even better.
