David Friedeberg
Great location by being near to everything. Clean bath house and laundry facilities. Lots are small. Failed to honor my reservation of two months and had to move within the first month. Request a reservation letter.
Joshua Perez
Great home away from home. The staff is very friendly and the people here are quiet and nice. I hardly ever see anyone.
Victoria Nowlin
I'd give the owners 5 stars. Sites a little close, easy in and out. We were just there one night while traveling. Quiet
Dave Morris
Beautiful location. We stay here every year for a few nights. Site is not as level as we’d prefer but workable. Not a fan of the policy of passing on to the customer a small fee they are charged by their software provider despite paying cash for our stay. Passing on “back-office” fees to the customer seems to be the trend in business today but as an old school guy, I’m not a fan. Not singling out Cherokee here just including them in the clan.

Can't speak to the amenities as we just stopped overnight, but the park is heavily treed and the owner was friendly & helpful. The rate was very reasonable; particularly to veterans. The gravelled parking was ample for our 35' mh & 12' trailer. Some of the overhead wires are pretty low so if you're over 13' height you might want to be careful when pulling in.

Nice small feeling older park. Bigger than it feels. Rebekah is very helpful
Susan Mixon
Nice place.

It worked for what we needed, a place to stay for the night while traveling. We were in a pull through near the front of the camp. Check in was easy. ground is gravel and big rocks, ground appears un level, but we were able to get out rig level. The bathhouse is at the back of the property but it's only a 5 min walk. Full hook ups. Publix less than 5 min down the road

Not too bad … It seems to be an older Campground . But, It’s very quiet. Roadways are somewhat rough in spots. Shower house and laundry is a little dated also. But very reasonably priced.
Michael Fielding
Cozy, quite campground with a nice big pond to enjoy, just needs some WiFi and a swimming pool and this would get 5 stars
