Pirate Cove Resort & Marina

This review is regarding the RV park and the restaurant on site. We arrived a little before dark on a Thursday night to our peninsula site with full hookups. It was our first time here and we were tired from a long day of driving and anxious to get set up before dark. At the check in the gal insisted on reading to me the pages of rules and regulations that I had read already acknowleged and received by email with the reservation which was annoying. The park was mostly deserted and empty I guess because it is off season. There was no lighting on the roads in the park and it got dark fast. It appeared that about half the sites were permanent manufactured homes and it looked run down. Roads inside the park were not well maintained and rough. Not what I was expecting for a high rated Good Sam Member. Cost was overpriced at $63 a night( w discount )with additional hidden fees added of utility fee of $10 a day, resort fee of $20, lease fee $17.43 and reservation fee of $10 it adds up. We had dinner at the restaurant and we were the only customers and ordered chicken dinner with no sides ($27) and split a chef salad and had a $15 rum and coke which was exhorbitant charges for what you get. Service was good once we found someone come out of the kitchen to wait on us. We left a day early as we were meeting friends in Parker and got a site at Pirate's Den RV park for the reminder of the stay which was much more reasonable.Probably won't return here or recommend to friends.

Great place if you ride OHV's. The beach by the restaurant is beautiful. The restaurant is a little pricey but the staff is great. The campsites on the peninsula are great, the other campsites are a parking lot, not so great. Overall we had a fun time.

We got there after hours and check in was longer than any other check in we've ever done. They put us down on the peninsula which was pretty but our vehicle would not have been able to get out of the sand. When we went back up to ask for a different site, the guy made us wait for other to check in, which was over 20 minutes. We asked to just park in one of the many empty sites and he refused to let us do that saying he had to check for available sites. Check in would be much easier if they had online options. We ended up not staying without even getting a refund.

Stayed out on the peninsula. It was a ton of fun. Quiet to the party we were with. Absolutely no issues with the stay. We did not eat at the restaurant but did see the menu. Extremely pricey and every item is ALA carte. Already planning my next trip down next year over the long weekend.

This place is pretty cool. I stopped by here years ago so when we decided to spontaneously go out of town in January I picked this spot. The resort was very expensive. Drinks are 20 bucks at the bar. Camping was 100-120 a night etc. I guess I could look past that but my worst experience was with the front office staff. The young lady was really a grouch. She even had the nerve to say "oh you're finally leaving huh? When we left. I can't believe a customer service rep would say that to a customer. She's the only reason I'm not giving 5 stars.
