This is was one of the cleanest well kept campgrounds that we have ever stayed in! Bathroom were spotless, up to date and thankfully very warm! Highly recommend

Just as described. Some reviews from years ago may have been accurate but when we stopped in for a couple days we talked with the owners. It used to be a Jellystone park but is now in the KOA family. It is definitely up to standards. It is a smaller park but it is clean. They police the area daily. There is a game room small store, pool, closed for the season when we were there at the end of October. Signage and roads were easy to navigate. If there were issues in the past they are non existent now. There is a train that runs through a short distance in the rear but it was minimal noise from where we were. We had an alternator issue and had to stay a second night on our way from NY to Fl. My neighbor had an issue also and the KOA were accommodating to us. I would highly recommend and will definitely consider this again if we are ever in the area again. Talking with the office they were above and beyond. Really nice people also.

The people who run this place are the absolute best! We were in a pickle and they helped us out IMMENSELY! I cannot speak highly enough of the staff! Every time they saw us the ask if we needed anything and they have washers and dryers on site and the showers get hot fast! ❤️

Billie Jo & Will were exceptional in making sure all of our needs were met. Grounds, kid & dog parks, and bathhouse extremely clean. We'll be back here many times!

Excellent experience at this KOA. My husband and I arrived and we were greeted with smiles, and a warm welcome. I asked if it was possible to move sites closer to the dog park as my husband wasn’t feeling well, and it would make things easier. The manager went out of her way to move sites for us, and the lady at the front was so sweet about it all. It’s easy on and off from I-95. Pretty little park, and perfect for big rigs.

Easy to get to, easy to pull in and hook up. We were just an overnight stay and it was only a few miles off route 95. We got there about 7:30pm and they had our info hanging on the board outside the office (very convenient). Our spot was very easy to find and to set up. All services (power, water and sewer) were right there and minutes after we pulled in, we were set up. Yes, there is a train that goes by but by the time we went inside and closed the doors, we didn't notice it. All in all, it was a good experience and I think we'll be back.

We called while on the road to make our reservation. We arrived after they closed. The site they assigned us was flooded and we couldn’t get in our camper. I left a message at the emergency number and explained what happened. In the meantime we decided to see if there were other sites available and set up in one. They finally called us back and told us to go to a site that we could never have gotten into so we stayed put. The campground is rough. It you are expecting a nice experience in camping, don’t go here.

Perfect spot overnight! Beautiful majestic trees! Quiet easy pull through sites. Lovely to hear the trains go by. Worth the trip. KOA and Yogi bear certified. Clean and friendly. Did not visit the bathrooms, but laundry was clean and quaint.

Good for an overnight stay or to help you get to where you are going. There is a nearby train that can be disruptive during the night. Our space was adequate for an overnight stay. It didn’t have a picnic table or even room for that sort. There are 2 sections of spaces (one wooded with trees and the other was more open). We were in the open area and closer to the “Jump Pad” but we never saw it operate…. It seems as if this is currently under renovation as it used to be a Jellystone and now is KOA. Bathhouse was a hike for us and definitely not worth the walk. Very minimal. Playground seemed nice. They also had a basketball hoop, horseshoes, volleyball, covered picnic tables, pool and potentially a splash pad (was closed probably because it isn’t quite warm enough). The staff was very kind and accommodating.

This is a basic campground and it is currently under renovation. We were assigned a space that did not fit our type of RV. The staff graciously agreed to move us to a more appropriate site. However, the water spigot handle and cable TV hookups were both broken. The sites are not level and need repair work. Also take note that there is a relatively busy train track just behind the site and a crossing for which the train has to sound its whistle. I would not stay here again unless I knew it had been renovated.
