This was my family's first trip to Holiday Hills. The staff was wonderful! We had an electric situation that was fixed immediately. The tiny home we stayed in was very nice. The deck was awesome. I would recommend that management consider trimming the two trees in front of Lakeside Place 2 to give a better water view. The pool at the resort was very clean. We loved that it was much deeper than most pools at other resorts. The pizza, grilled cheese, chicken nuggets, and ice cream at the restaurant in the camp store tasted awesome! We hope to return next year! Wonderful stay!

This place is basically a glorified trailer park. Around 80% of the campground appears to be made up of permanent, year-round residents. The sheer number of golf carts was frustrating—residents zoom around at Mach Jesus just to travel 40 feet to the pool. It’s a completely different atmosphere from what you’d expect at a traditional campground. There’s no hiking, no sightseeing, and the so-called “beach” is pathetically small. As an engineer, I have serious concerns about the structural integrity of the deck outside the camp store. In my professional opinion, the owners should have it inspected as soon as possible. From visual observation, the footings appear compromised, and several joists show signs of rot. Another major issue is the location of the waste disposal station. It’s directly next to the camp store, where many people sit outside to enjoy ice cream. The smell is terrible. I’m fairly certain there are FDA or public health guidelines about how close open waste systems can be to food service areas. Even worse, the dump station is located at a higher elevation than the pool. During heavy rains, any spilled waste could potentially run downhill toward the pool. I’m not sure what kind of inspections campgrounds like this are subject to by the state, but this one raises several red flags.

I have stayed at holidays hills resort many times, and every time gets better and better. There is so much to do for the whole family. A swimming pool, a fully functional store, kayaks, renting the boats and being able to rent a golf kart to lug everything around has got to be the best thing! Another thing I love is being able to fish in multiple areas! 10/10 recommend!

We loved our visit. The staff was great, the lake was beautiful, the beach was everything we needed. They have fire pits so you can roast marshmallows, golf cart rentals, beautiful cabins, and the pool was so nice, on a hot day

Leaving disappointed. We have been coming to this resort for over 30 years. It has gone down hill. The ac unit BEEPS ALL NIGHT. It’s so incredibly annoying! The wifi doesn’t work. The tv doesn’t work. The little beach area used to be kept up nicer for the kids. Fishing area by the docks needs to be picked up. They allow so many golf carts down by the docks by the townhouses my 1 year old almost got mowed down. Only good thing was Chef Jamie’s food truck. This will unfortunately likely be our last year. I’ll be looking for something with more amenities for children and simply just want a good night sleep. I’m currently writing this listening to the AC unit just beep away and keep my baby up. I seriously can’t wait to leave
