Think back to 1960. The swimming hole, the hay ride, the playground, pedal boat, a campfire with s’mores. That’s all here. We stayed 14 days. The noise level from trains, planes, and automobiles was at first startling but after a wakeful first night we got used to it and slept okay—make sure to run your fan all night. We brought our grandkids here for an evening and they loved it. The family owned management is very friendly and helpful. Restrooms and showers were clean. The only downside was the families living in poverty there permanently. But the people were friendly and the place was safe.
Where to begin?!? I guess I’ll start with the positives. The female employee was kind enough but didn’t give us any sort of camp rules that were later mentioned by the manager ( complete jerk) there was plenty of fish in the pond as my 11 year old caught 7 right off the rip! The playground is probably the most modern thing in the entire place. It’s also a convenient area. However the location itself is very noisy as mentioned in other reviews. It’s a very dated camp ground and the facilities are dirty!!! But by far the worst is the manager and his lack of hospitality and straight up people skills!!! We have children and he clearly doesn’t like them or really even tolerate them well! I guess I just expect if you run a place like a campground you’re a bit more friendly. Maybe you should be more worried about the run down campers and grounds in general than a couple kids skipping rocks.
Been a long time since I been there. Although the atmosphere was inviting the lake looked pretty bad. You can tell it really hasn't been tended to. My brother and I asked the owner if we could move the fire pit to a different location across from the lot we were renting for the weekend because it was too close to the camper and we were told no. He told us to retract the awning and pretty much deal with it. The location we asked permission to move the fire pit to was literally across the way wouldn't have been a problem as we even told him we'd clean up the area after we were done. Just not a place I'd spend money on for a holiday weekend when there's plenty of better places to go.
