Very friendly staff!! It has gorgeous camping spots down near the pond. Huge lots that lookout over the pond. Cabins look nice from the outside too. Bathrooms smelt and looked clean. Would definitely go back.

Cannot say enough good things about the owners and staff. Had an issue with our truck towing our camper. Contacted the KOA and was put in touch with a mechanic who sent a rollback and picked up the truck and camper. Rollback took us to the campground and put our camper in our site, then took the truck to the garage. The truck was repaired and delivered back to us 1 day later. Everyone was extremely helpful and thoughtful of the situation. We are extremely thankful for everyone who helped us in our time of need. Thanks to everyone. The Wagners

It's always a sad day, after spending a week here in this beautiful and well kept camp ground. The owner Tommy, what a awesome host. It's on our top of list places to return too, very peaceful and extremely well kept. Hope to see you back here soon.

Great campsite. Staff super friendly and efficient. We had g4 on the main road through the site. It was perfect, full hook up. Fire pit and they supply firewood etc. Great shop. Wonderful games room , lots to do. Really pretty place and they take really good care of it. Everywhere mown nicely. They even take your garbage away for you, all you do is leave your bag by your site in the morning. Gated entry. Felt safe here. We did one night on our way through our road trip. Would definitely recommend.

It was our first trip there. You couldn't ask for nicer owners & their family. Anything and everything they could do to make your visit just perfect! There are many things to do in the area but we wanted to just rest and relax with family. It was Memorial Day weekend with lots of music and activities for the kids too. 2 Beautiful Pools (one is salt water) (one is indoor) lots of games (ski ball my fav) and a cute store for souvenirs. Wood for your campfire and ice for your cooler.
