If you are wanting a quiet, upscale getaway, this RV park is for you! Lots of space to stretch your legs, the grounds are immaculate, and the people who reside there are amazing. They become not only neighbors, but instant friends. All the amenities are updated and beautiful. The camp hosts Jerry and Dianne are friendly and helpful. The owners Carol and Kelly live on site. Always friendly and eager to assist if you need anything. This was our vacation Home away from home.

I stayed at Shade Tree for the weekend and it was absolutely beautiful and so peaceful. It had a great layout and thoughtful amenities that made our stay really enjoyable. The dog park was a huge plus — with separate areas for large and small dogs, which made it feel safe and well organized. There was a lovely courtyard area with a fire pit and cornhole that was perfect for relaxing in the evenings, and another quiet area with a tree swing and lounge chairs that felt like a little retreat. It was such a calm and scenic place to unwind. The laundry room was clean and convenient with a brand new washer and dryer, and having a restroom there as well was really helpful. Overall, this park felt welcoming, well-maintained, and designed for comfort and relaxation. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and well-equipped RV park.

Well we started there in April of 2025 and thought we would be there awhile but had something come up we couldn’t pass on. The park if definitely quiet and peaceful. The owners are great people and have become friends. Everyone out there is super friendly. If you are looking for an inexpensive place go to shade tree. It’s the best!!!!

I lived here before with the previous owners, HOWEVER THE NEW OWNERS…DO NOT MOVE IN IF YOU ENJOY PRIVACY!!!! It’s almost like a cult! If you don’t play kiss up to the owners and their family they will evict you! Rules like, CHILDREN MAY NOT WALK ON THE GRASS. OR WE MAY NOT GO TO CHICKEN COOP AND LOOK AT CHICKENS BUT THEY CAN ROOST UNDER MY CAMPER CROWING ALL DAY! OR WE CANT HAVE FIREWORKS BECAUSE IT SCARES THEIR DOGS. They have their flunkies sit outside ALL DAY EVERY DAY LONG WATCHING FOR ANYTHING TO SAY SOMETHING ABOUT! Just a bunch of nosey, controlling, old people! No one but them can use the amenities! Just an entire mess!!! This use to be nice we would have cookout and get togethers. Now no one wants to be here! Save yourself the trouble! Go somewhere else!
