Stay away!!! New management is below standard. Over half of the seasonal campers have left or were kicked out of the campground. They cut the lodges operating hours by 70% and even when they are technically open they are closed (they like to lean a sandwich board with their hours of operation against the entrance door, not next to the door but against the actual door. Blocking the entrance during the hours they are supposedly open). They are not welcoming and have been known to yell at people looking for information about the property. The roads have pot holes all over the place and they haven’t adequately laid rock down so your vehicle and rig get covered with mud and dust. Campers have to water the roads down to keep the dust in check so they don’t breathe it in. The playground is infested with sand fleas, it was so bad I had to stop taking my daughter after she got covered in bites. I asked the management if they could do something about the fleas and they just looked at me. Of course they did nothing about it. They closed the ponds to fishing two months early last year. I can understand needing to restock the ponds for fishing but they didn’t give anyone notice or offer any kind of compensation for the inconvenience. A lot of campers specifically camp out there for the fishing. They came out one weekend and were told “no more fishing for the rest of the season”. Like, what!?!?! No notice, no sorry, just inane excuses about “insurance reasons”. Are you for real? That really pissed people off and when they complained about the inconvenience their leases were canceled or not renewed. Had they provided a little notice something like, “Hey just a heads up we need to restock the pond so no more fishing after such and such date” maybe people wouldn’t have reacted the way they did. Compensating them for the loss of two months of no fishing would have gone a long way too. A BBQ or a special discount on ice cream could have been offered and would have been an easy appeasement but instead they act like the people upset at losing something they paid for were crazy and/or trouble makers (they weren’t). The remaining campers are the ones that are going to miss those who have left. A campground isn’t about the property or it’s amenities, it’s the people who work there and camp there that make a campground what it is. And this place doesn’t have those people anymore.

Was a great place until it sold. New Staff was nice in beginning but towards the end of the year they couldn't make decisions and left guest wondering what to expect. Very unorganized and Unprofessional.

Bed bugs in cabins, staff is unprofessional and rude. They charge for all activities and there's no fishing most times. No keeping any fish and you have to pay if you do. Not people friendly, DO NOT RECOMMEND!!

We were traveling back from out west and needed a place to land for the night. We just happened upon this campground and glad we did! Staff was super nice! They were also having a haunted hayride, which was alot of fun! The campground is really pretty and very family friendly. The bathrooms and showers are nice and clean. If we pass by this way again we'll definitely stay here again!

My husband and I stayed at Crazy Horse Campground from 10/13th through 10/23/2021. There were some potholes in the roads, but otherwise the campground was well maintained. The staff was wonderful. Always ready to help with a smile. The water pressure is a little bit slow, but not bad at our campsite. The camp showers could use more pressure. It's hard to wash hair and get all the soap out. The reason I didn't give 5 stars is because every weekday morning between 600AM an 630AM a truck towing an empty flatbed trailer went by our campsite bouncing going over the holes in the road making such a racket waking us up.

I give this place a 5 star rating because it has wonderful staff and they take good care of the place. Some things unfortunately are not in the best of shape due to teenagers destroying property a few years ago and they have not been able to get it back into the shape that it was in before. Also, the swim area has a lot of moss in it even tho it has been tested and approved by the state to swim in. We enjoyed our stay and the kids loved it! A great family getaway!

Absolutely love camping here every year. Although it's the most expensive place per night relatively close to home, the owners, Andy and Heather are awesome! The amenities and weekend events rock. We camp here with several other families and always drive to the local winery outside New Berlin. Just found out about a new winery that opened up right outside Jacksonville so we'll hit that one, too, next year. Best lodge, breakfast, and awesome bathrooms/shower house than any other campground other than Starved Rock lodge and Turkey Run!
