This park came highly recommended by family, and we’re so glad we stayed here during the fall with our RV. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was welcoming and relaxed. The fall season made for a peaceful stay, and it was a great time of year to enjoy RV camping. One of the highlights of our visit was how friendly both the staff and fellow RV campers were. The staff was helpful and approachable, and the other RVers added to the warm, community feel of the campground. It made the experience even more enjoyable and memorable. Overall, we truly enjoyed our stay and felt comfortable throughout our visit. The park provided a great setting for a relaxing RV trip, and we’re glad we followed our family’s recommendation. We’re already looking forward to coming back and plan to stay longer next time. — Bernard & Annmaire

This campsite sits right next to a very busy road, 18 wheelers rolling up and down that road. No resting here. The campsites are right next to each other, literally you can see and here the person next to you. There are many permanent trailers and they are not well kept. The leaves were everywhere and before you say, it's fall ... The grounds were covered, roads barely stood out, thank goodness they escorted us to the site. We would have never found it. There were activities but no one notified us of when or where. We do not recommend this campground at all. Maybe in the summer if, big if, you like noisy places but for us IT IS A NO THANK YOU. Live and learn. Pictures included of how close the road is to the sites. The other thing was the Wi-Fi, working ... Nope! They also had a hayride, through the campground, that was it when they had trails in the back. The were also cutting wood during the day. Seemed very clanish to us, not welcoming campers at all.

Absolutely disappointed with this campground, the new owners have let to go to hell.... we used to love coming here. We stayed here over the weekend and who ever the new people are that are staying in the house have a dog that growled and barked at us everytime we went by it. Down in the river has gone to crap also. The prices have been raised ridiculously high now. We used to camp here for a while with the old owners that would greet you with a smile and do stuff for the kids. Now its just a shitty campground going to crap. And sucks because we really enjoyed this place. Do better people.

We reserved this campground somewhat late for the 4tb of July. My husband was assured they had overflow sites available so we took one 🙄 they put us in a gravel storage lot next to the dump station and construction. The camper next to us was maybe 3-4 feet from us. No fire pit (they will bring you a portable one) 85% of the campers are permanent spots and very run down. Crap piled under the campers, non working lawn mowers were a very common sight. The owners were nice while we were there but refused to give us any money back. We will never return to this junkyard, because that’s all it honestly is. I DO NOT RECOMMEND

This is a really nice little campground. We stayed here on our way to Missouri for 1 night. Our pull thru site had full hookups and everything worked as it should. They have a pool and lots of things for children to do. The ower is very nice and helpful. We will stop again if ever in the area.
