If you are looking for a relaxing camping experience...go somewhere else. It cost me $600 for 3 nights and yes they have all the key amenities I would look for in a family campground. What it lacks is an actual camp site big enough to put my 29 foot camper on. Stop telling people their camper will fit...this is essentially a parking lot you can bring your camper to. My hitch was in the road. Our truck had to be parked in the overflow parking. Site wasn't big enough to have a fire with out setting my awning or our neighbors camper on fire. If you are planning on camping here do some research on which site you are staying at and see if you can find pictures. The ones online are not accurate.

Do not come to this campground if you expect peace and quiet on occasion, because apparently as long as it’s during the daytime hours, you can be completely disrespectful to all the campers around you. This came straight from the managers mouth. That’s good to know because the next time I’m woken up at midnight by the loud neighbors, I’m gonna make a big enough stink to make sure nobody gets any sleep. This place is a joke. They claim they enforce rules, but it never happens. All weekend, long kids ride around the campground on bikes (scooters/ebikes/skateboards) without helmets with little regards to the traffic around them. This is the last year they’re getting $7000 out of me.

We travelled for more than three week through various states, this campground has been the worst. Expensive, unfriendly staff and no privacy at all on the tiny campsites. The staff gave us incorrect information about the trolley service schedule and we had to wait for a long time. The pool was great, but already closed at 6:30pm and we couldn't reach anyone to ask to open it up (noone was answering the phone). The kids were very disappointed. We couldn't get much sleep at night because we had some very noisy neighbours with 10+ people on the site and plenty of alcohol and loud music. The site manager has not answered our calls until today. On the positive site: The trolley service to the beach is great (not operated by the campground) The pool and water play area is very nice (when it's open)

Arriving at this campground, I was really looking forward to a family-friendly experience. However, the actual campsites did not match the pictures at all. The spots were cramped and disappointing, they shared no resemblance to the photos online. The pool and hot tub are restricted to 21 and over, and they didn't serve alcohol or have any valid reason for why they employ such a restriction. This made my family feel left out. Considering the high price of over $100 a night, I would not suggest coming here, and I will not be coming back myself.
