Beautiful campground. Don't get me wrong, I truly appreciate this RV park. It's really nice and secluded. After a 12 hour day of driving, we arrived and everyone in the office was very kind. We were really exhausted. And, that's where it all began...the maze. She drew our spot on the map and it looked simple enough to find, until you actually got into the campground. The street signs are hard to read. The street names and numbers didn't coordinate with the map. We've managed and worked at campgrounds with hundreds of sites before. We literally drove in circles trying to find our spot. I understand it's difficult to find people to escort to a site. Times are tough. But, oh my word, if this would have been during busy season, it would have been an accident waiting to happen. Luckily, it's off season and we only encountered a couple of vehicles while driving the maze. It took us 15 minutes only because we are both typically good at map reading and understanding how number sequences work. For the average camper who hasn't worked at a campground, this would be terrible. We have to run errands during our stay and I'll admit I am a bit anxious about finding our site again. We may have to lay an M n M trail to find it. Lol!. Outside of that, this really is a gorgeous campground with super friendly Ladies in the office. 4 stars only because of the direction issues.

I am ambivalent about this one. The park setting is great as it is in a beautiful pine forrest. The sites are mostly nice and spaceous. Be careful, though, there are exceptions such as crossroad pull throughs. Now we go downhill. The park roads layout is a bewildering Cretan labyrinth like the back streets in Venice. Not all the roads have clear signs and the site numbers are hard to see. Don't try to find your site at night. Given all of that, it would be nice to get an escort to your site the first time.These roads are also quite full of potholes and axle cracking speed bumps every few dozen yards. The 5 mph speed limit here is insane, but exceed that and you will get finger wagging. There are three laundromats here, but in two of them every last machine was out of order. In the third one 2/3 of the machines were in the same condition. In general, this park had an air and look of not being very well maintained.

In late September the temperature was perfect. It seems there are plenty of longer term tenants that have made a home here. Although each lot looked clean and well kept. I would assume with the long term tenants, this RV Park is preferable. From my 2 day stay, I can't complain. It was peaceful and still carried the nature vibe, especially with the random squirrel wandering about. The shower room was very clean and temperature controlled. The outlet didn't work however. I would definitely come back to stay in the future.

We really enjoy staying here, we've been 4 different times and the spaces we have stayed in were all roomy and clean. The park now has over 700 spaces, so look online at the park map before you call and choose several spots you think you might like. They do have 2 laundry rooms that were large and clean too. The last spot we stayed at was in the new area and our spot was ALL ankle breaker size rocks, so I spent a lot of time clearing those off that spot. You're welcome. 🤣

I looked on the website it said they have monthly sites. So we drive over . The lady behind the desk was talking to me like she didn't want to be there. And said no you can only stay 3 weeks then leave for 3 weeks and pay a weekly rate of over $200. If you want to stay a month then you got to reserve it in October so I figured they were full. Nope not even close I drove through the long term area it was half empty. And I have a friend staying there and he said he has never heard of reserving in October he didn't. And monthly rent is a little over 500 . So I see it as they just want more money. Will not go back.
