Nice family oriented place with lots of campsites and cabins to choose from. They have a cozy bath house plus laundry. They have fishing and a variety of kid friendly activities. Also if you go in the summer they have a nice sized pool to enjoy! Well don't just take my word for it, if you're in the area, go check them out.

This is a nice park that’s clearly in the early stages of a big build-out to become a full-scale Jellystone campground. They currently have a mix of older and newer cabins, tent sites, and RV spots. The main draw for kids is the bounce house and jump pad, which stayed busy all day. There are also two smaller playsets, a pavilion, a large pond, a pool, a small arcade, and a general store that hosts crafts throughout the day. The staff were all very friendly, and the grounds were kept clean and orderly. Our cabin was as advertised — comfortable beds, working AC and heat, and the big plus: being able to park right next to the cabin. Everything worked as expected and made for a pleasant stay. A couple of small negatives: the bathhouse was out of order for about an hour, and the “Candy Bar Bingo” activity wasn’t clearly explained when we signed up to play. Overall, this is a pleasant, family-friendly campground with great staff and a lot of potential. I’m looking forward to seeing it continue to grow — especially with more cabins, restrooms, and kid activities in the future.

We don't live far from Jellystone, sadly our ability to get away is limited with work and projects close to home, so on occasion, we get a stay at Jellystone to master our set up and tear down, and take a "kinda camping" vacation. We call it that because we do live within 10 miles of the campground. 🥰 I love this campground and am excited for it's growth and all the plans they have for future development. Right now, it feels like my secret getaway. We have stayed there three times since May. When we are pinched for time but still want to feel like we are on hiatus, we pull in our travel trailer for about a week and just kick back to a sky full of stars and the song of nature all around us. If we need to run home for anything, we can. 🫣 You do forget stuff when camping. 🤣 The staff is wonderful and the campground is clean with ample places to put your camper. Come and stay. You won't regret it.

Four of us - adult son, dtr in law, 8yo granddaughter and Grandma, plus 2 dogs!. we had a large cabin #9 with a beautiful view of the pond. We were cozy but there was good room. I had not prepared (didn't really check the website for details) meals that didn't require a stove top or oven, but with the microwave and the outside firepit with grate we did just fine!! the activities were fun for my granddaughter although she basically lived in the beautiful pool. Comfort stations were comfortable and very clean. Staff was super friendly and helpful and the grounds were just lovely. Would stay there anytime, esp with brand new tiny houses being installed.

We camped here as a large group. The camp staff were polite and accommodating. There were so many activities planned for families at the campground. The facilities were clean and the grounds were well maintained. The campsites were a little snug with the neighbors, but we did not have any issues.
