I grew up coming here. It used to be a fun place to fish, but the locals came by and ruined for everyone. Still for a family cookout and swimming, it's a lot of fun.
Likes - campground was clean, the employees were great, close to tows yet feels remote. Mordern restrooms.
Dislikes - unmaintained trees, driveways, water drainage after rain is not great - puddles everywhere meaning lots of mosquitoes. Trail is not well maintained with broken walking bridges.
Loved camping here and taking my littles on their first camping trip. Beautiful clean park, access to hiking trails, and helpful staff. Playground was nice, bathrooms always clean, and we enjoyed renting a canoe. Fields to play on, friends to make and an all around relaxing time. ❤️
Good family campground overall and dog friendly. Really need parking at Beaver pond beach head. Unreasonable to tote 2 or 3 kayaks from far outer camp sites to the boat launch. Hiking, biking and kayaking are golden. Sites, showers and restrooms are good, clean and convenient. Young staff was nice and friendly. Nice playground and beach for the kids. Really need a boat of some type to fish in Beaver or Spruce pond otherwise you will have to find one of very few paths to the ponds to fish from. Archery pond would be the best pond for teaching or having kids fish, however they say it's only for fly fishing. Archery range is nice and set up to shoot away from the pond. With parking at Beaver, Spruce pond, more paths off the trails to fish or just to view the pristine ponds from, I would have given 5 stars but just rate them at 3 stars because those few things. Would have made it so much more fun, accessible and convenient.
