Just used the shower house here. Speaking from a person in a wheelchair. It is the best handicap shower I've ever used in an RV park. Very accessible portable shower chairs. Great water pressure and hot water. Thank you for that it was truly a blessing.

We arrived a little early, not by much and upon arrival the staff said that wasn’t a problem. They did not specify that there was a $3 charge for arriving early. I wish they would have told us to give us an option. It is only $3 but it is the principle of the thing. Please be transparent about this upon arrival. Bathrooms were clean but dated. If you do not have small children this is not the park for you. They put us next to the event center and there was music and noise til 11 pm We note the presence of permanent residents in the park. The area around has little of interest. If you have young kids, this is for you with the playground. However it wasn’t for us for the reasons mentioned and we will not be using this park again. For what it has, they are overpriced. Suggestions: remodel your bathroom. Stop charging incidental fees and bump everyone’s fee up by $3 to compensate. This will help you if you need fund to upgrade the old bathrooms. Sorry. We were not impressed.

Campground is absolutely beautiful so much that we grabbed a rental spot two years in a row. The service however is awful and caused us to pull our camper out of there. The first year was just to get our foot in the door, our site was tiny and on a hill but we were able to get a better site the next season, or so we thought. The owners have pages of rules for the campground but only some need to follow them. When it came time for our seasonal spot to renew we decided not to after having issues of people parking at our spot , staff Letting other campers charge items at the camp store to our site so our debit card would be billed at the end of the weekend to our surprise. When we weren't camping the neighbors used our site and moved our picnic tables for their own use and that was just a few issues. The owners are still refusing to return our deposit even though We cleaned our site better than it was given to us but they are holding our deposit hostage because they found some items left( wood, concrete blocks) that were left by the campers before us and even though we submitted proof that the items were there before we moved onto the site and they are giving us the silent treatment and holding our money. We were warned that this is normal behavior for Jen and BJ but we were hopeful it wasn't going to be true because we had already signed a contract with them before we found this out. If your camping for the weekend you probably wont have as many issues as a seasonal spots but beware, Jen and BJ aren't nice people. I'll update if they decide to do the right thing and return out money since we sent proof to their attention.

Great campground!! So many activities for the kids, and plenty to do for the adults. A safe place that kids can take off on their bikes and play. We had a great time and can’t wait to go back.

Great campground for our yearly "April 1st Trip Work the Kinks Out" trip. It was only about a 2 hour drive for us to just hang out for the weekend. We brought our gravel bikes and could easily ride to New Douglas to get on the Rails 2 Trails bike path. Nice staff and we saw several activities for the kids going on over the weekend. Looked like several locals/regulars who were very friendly.
