Who This Park Is Best For
This destination is best suited for family vacationers and road trippers looking for a relaxed, nature-focused environment.

Very great camping! A quiet place with a lot of space and all the services needed: acess to electricity, water and WiFi on site. The restrooms are fancy, clean and extremely confortable for a camping site, I've never seen that before!

I would not recommend. We stopped later in the day to see if they had a tent site available. We were told that the tent sites were flooded but they had a site available right beside the playground and they’d give it to us for the same price. We set up and we plugged in to the electrical on the site to charge our phones (the person tenting next to us was connected and charging too). While we were in our tent a lady walked up calling out “excuse me! You’re not allowed to connect to the power. You didn’t pay for it.” I told her that we were told that we could have the site for the same money. She immediately told us that she texted them and that is not what she told us. I guess she was saying that I was a liar. I think her name might have been Karen. I unplugged our devices but before we could unplug the extension cord and get dressed and out of an older gentleman drove a golf cart across our site, unplugged or cord and threw it toward our site. It’s a real shame that this is the way they treat guests that they haven’t even met. To approach guest in anger, before any conversation is strange. The bathrooms were nice and clean. I wouldn’t recommend this campground to anyone. We will not return.
