Ok, so the good news first, the views of the pond in the fall are beautiful. Now the not so great. With the exception of about 12 sites by the office, many of the sites near the pond are really small and are difficult to get into given the narrow road, short length of the sites and the trees and stumps that make maneuvering difficult. Second, Keyser Pond is about 60% “seasonal” residents so expect lots of permanent RVs with decks and add-ons. Third, the staff isn’t very customer focused and seemed bothered when asked questions and once we checked in, we never saw anyone again. Keyser Pond was one of the few RV parks open in late October so we didn’t have much choice, but if we did, we would have stayed elsewhere.

Stayed here for 3 nights, wouldn't return. The traffic noise from 202 is quite disturbing, especially when you camp to enjoy sounds of nature. The sites are very small and on top of each other, I couldn't imagine booking one along the highway side as we booked on the pond and could still hear excessive road noise. The absolute worst part of this place is the wrist band rule. We didn't wear ours...I'm not showering, sleeping, swimming, tanning with a wrist band on. This is a campground, not a night club. I gave an extra star for dog friendliness, although dogs aren't allowed in the pond. They do allow dogs in the camp store and in the game room which is really nice! There were also multiple very nice employees driving around on golf carts giving out dog treats. Definitely wouldn't recommend staying here if you're looking for a peaceful and enjoyable camping experience.

Our site had a beautiful view of the pond. It was nice to view it in the morning upon waking up. The campground was well maintained, with that being said, it's very tight. No privacy between sites. It's like camping with a very close neighbor. Trees and greenery are absent between sites. We had our dogs with us, and finding an appropriate potty site was difficult as the sites lack grassy areas as well. Traffic from route 202? was also very prevalent throughout our stay, it's a very busy route and runs alongside the campground.

First time going here. Absolutely Amazing!!! Staff was all so nice and very welcoming. All the other campers were so friendly. I recommend 100%. I know I will be going back again. The staff changed our original sight because we got a smaller one to a larger sight to accommodate my family. My kids even said they want to move there because they loved it so much.

We stayed a few days at the Keyser Pond Campground in one of the little cabins near the front of the front of the property. It was the end of the winter season, so mostly the campground activities were shut down. However the host was very responsive in providing information, conversation, and odds and ends (like firewood and a ball for the kids to play with). The cabin is cute inside and out, and the kids enjoyed the playground and swings. Conveniently located for some lessons at Pat's Peak. Would stay again, and recommend to friends!

Can't say enough amazing things about this campground. The staff and seasonal campers made us feel at home. Quiet and relaxing was on our agenda for our vacation and couldn't have pictured a better place. Extremely clean, well maintained grounds, nicely stocked shop for all last minute items, kayak rentals, swimming, games and more. Highly recommend and we will most certainly be returning.

This is our second time staying at Keyser pond. We booked last year and while we enjoyed our stay, this year was even better. The campground, while small, offers nice wooded sites, clean bathrooms, friendly staff ( the owner helped us back our camper into a tricky site) and a quiet , low key, no frills atmosphere. This place isn’t fancy. It’s not one of those resort style places, but we were not looking for that. The pond / beach area was clean, and perfect for our three year old to swim and play. They had a great little office store stocked with essentials. They had a new playground structure and offered food trucks for something to eat if we wanted. I’d say the only negative was the highway noise, but obviously, something like that is beyond their control, and it wasn’t even that bad. We loved our site, which was right on the water. It offered views of the beautiful sunset!! We will be back.

Couldn’t enjoy the weekend too busy worried about tripping on the open water lines and Live Wires crossing to the bathroom. Nice residents across the water front.. Friendly staff in the office.. Owner has cheap on his shoulder . Needs to go back to school and learn customer service skills ..

This is exactly what I love in a campground. If you’re looking for a camping resort, keep looking. But if you’re looking for a small, quiet, cute place then get a waterfront site! We were driven to our site and guided back in by the owner. We have a beautiful view of the water from our firepit with a pretty spacious site. Things were relatively quiet around here! It’s a great spot for fall camping! They do have some amenities like playground, weekend activities, basketball, horseshoes, mini golf, shuffleboard, kayaking…. But we didn’t need them because we had such a nice time relaxing at our site! trashes located throughout, 10 second walk to get to the closest one! Dog friendly too! Bugs weren’t even bad either! Prices are super reasonable for a full hookup! Thanks for a great weekend!
