Flat spots for the RV,(many RV campgrounds do not take this into consideration. This is the most important thing, in my opinion). Nice pool, store and game room. Prices on everything were very reasonable. The owners are super nice and very helpful. Very quiet campground, which we liked. Well done! We will be back!!

I had a reservation but I knew that I'd be late arriving. The lady who answered the phone said that, if I'd call before I got there, she would come back to the office and sign me in. I did as she asked and then she gave me an upgrade to a full hookup site at no charge to me. She said she had a cancellation and I could have it if I wanted it. As well as being some of the most amazing people, the owner/managers are dedicated to making the client's stay pleasurable. If I'm ever back in the area I will definitely stay at Shady Acres.
