I had so much stuff stolen from this campground. Don’t leave anything outside and I was broken in twice. Nothing done about it. I will be making a second police report!!

The good- very clean facility. The bad- they ways used to do themes for the kids. Nothing this year. Hardly anyone camping. Counted over 20 empty spaces. Last year we did tye-dye shirts had the foam for the kids to play in. Also only one pool is available very disappointing

The pool is always clean and doesn't stink of chlorine or urine, but that's about it. It's basically a trailer park with drunks racing around on golf carts. Stray cats everywhere. I visited with a friend recently and we couldn't even go outside because of the smell of cat poo. An old man at the karaoke stage was catcalling my 16year old daughter and some yearlong resident yelled at my little son and his friend for climbing a tree. 2 little boys trying to play aren't going to hurt the tree.

This was the second campground we were at after buying our camper last year. Came back again this year and I have to give this campground 5 stars. The people have been helpful both times, plenty of playgrounds, basketball courts, pools and everything for the kids. The value for the price per night is absolutely awesome. One of the best hidden gems in PA!

THIS IS A RUSTIC SITE REVIEW ONLY I am a tent person. Love tent camping. When I saw it was offered here with the other amenities I was excited. That didn't last long. As you can see from the photos the last time the bathroom for the rustic site was cleaned is questionable at best. Then there's the campsites. These hills are supposed to comfortably hold 10 sites. If you've ever put up a tent, you know they need level ground. Again, that is not the case. Not only is there's only enough level space for about 3-4 tents, with 10 "spots" filled rustic campers wouldn't have any parking. There's an ATV trail that would be beautiful to hike, if the locals hadn't dumped piles upon piles of garbage back there along them. Between the 10 spots there are two stone fire pits and half of a picnic table. I'm not exaggerating, check the photos. Compound all of this with the fact that the rustic sites are directly behind the dumpsters and the waste water treatment building, and you quickly "upgrade" to a spot designated for a camper trailer. The camper trailer area is a parking lot for campers. Nothing more or less. No shade. No trails. Just a lot of people riding around on golf carts. Definitely NOT tent friendly.

Rolled up without reservations, they were very accommodating, they put up for 4 nights, place filled up 2 days later for the 4th of July weekend. Loved playing bingo, and onsite catch and release fishing. Too chilly to swim but the pool is pretty. We had a great time. We would definitely come back! Such friendly staff and campers.

I love our campground. When I say good for the whole family I mean the whole family. - Babies (unless you're right next to where they put on the DJ) - Kids (awesome playground, indoor and outdoor pools, - Adults (fishing, herping, exploring, friendly conversations & community)...Moms, dads, grandparents, your weird uncle and your alcoholic aunt.. .everyone fits in out here :) the only thing is I really wish that the permanent residents were treated with as much appreciation as the temporary? We bought out lot and wanted a picnic table and gravel. We got a picnic table covered in bird poop, still don't have gravel, made our own fire pit, and pulled into camp the next weekend to see brand new picnic tables, gravel, AND fire pits (all new everything) for all the lots located in front of us. It was like a big tease. In the camp manual it states you must park in gravel but we don't have any even upon request. Id just like to make our camp a bit more comfortable and a picnic table that doesn't have chipped paint would be very helpful:)
