My family had a wonderful time staying here over the long weekend back in August. The staff were very friendly and the store had everything you need that you forgot to pack. Washrooms were always clean. We would recommend staying here if going to Santa's village. They daily activities for the kids including movie night and games night.

We had a great 2 nights at Santa’s Whispering Pines. Santa even came by for a visit. Sites are tight. Usually you get somewhere and think “I could have gotten a bigger trailer in here.” This is not one of those places The washrooms and showers were nice and clean. Has a dumping station with a hose end for black tank rinse.

Fantastic campground, busy yet quiet, friendly staff, pool is small but does it job. Bathrooms clean, friendly staff, We stayed in a cabin and family loved it, travels with a 9month old 4 and 6 year old. Only thing I will bring next time is a AC or another fan. No complaints with campground at all.

It was a pretty packed place when we were there for 3 days. They said the sites were full-hookup, but in fact, they only had a dumping station. The pool was cold. Lots of overflow parking. Wlak across the street to Santa Village. It was nice to hear Santa wishing everyone a good morning, every morning.

This was perfect for our family trip. We had four families that came together for a big family vacation. We rented 4 cottages that were all clean and were perfect for our needs. The kids ranged from 6 months to 15 years, and we all found something to do 😀 The only thing I would change was coming in July or August when more stuff is open (like the pool).
