A very friendly and family experience for all ages, with a 9-hole Golf course and a 18-hole miniature put put, for those who love to golf.
Beautiful setting, nice pool , fun mini golf and friendly staff.
Ponds could use water fountains , so that its not standing water. Ponds are full of algae.
Park has very poor electrical service not true 30 Amp service and main breaker pops a lot needs major electrical upgrade.
***Horrible experience/Horrible managers****
My Hubby & son had a really bad experience this weekend 8/18/23--8/20/23. They have been going to this place for over
10+ yrs and had NEVER been treated the way they were this weekend.
The property managers over reaction about a truck parked in the grass which they moved once they were asked to, but the manager had really nasty attitude towards them and asked them to just leave.
Next day, first thing instead in the morning instead of saying good morning like most good human beings, he says "I hope you are leaving and cleaning up after yourselves and dont come back here".....SOOOO UNBELIEVABLE!
( so, sad cause the Ephrata Community is not like these people running this place!)
This management team had nasty attitude the whole time they were there and made them feel very uncomfortable and talked to them in such a condescending way in front of the 4 little kids/
4 teens that were all with them for this camping experience .
Apparently seemed like they were targeted as they were the only ones getting yelled at for a truck parked in the grass when clearly multiple trucks in the park were also parked in the grass as well.
My husband/son camping group was the only Hispanics in the park at the time and the only ones getting harassed/targeted.
They are very disappointed and do feel this was a racists acts on behave of that management team. I recommend they reconsider there actions towards the patrons and especially get some management trainings, specially in customer service, Or hire someone will.
The staff was super knowledgeable and friendly. They loaned us equipment to be able to hook up our 50amp plug to the 30 amp pedestal. Cute little store with lots of camper themed items for sale. We’re definitely coming back!
No one should EVER be treated the way the manager, manager's wife and groundskeeper treated my family this weekend. My family was on their annual guys camping trip and these three individuals made it clear that my family was not welcome at this campground. We weren't doing ANYTHING DIFFERENT than any other campers there but we were singled out and targeted over petty issues right and left. They went from 0 to 100 over parking issues (despite multiple other campers parking on the grass), told us they couldn't wait for us to leave and said they hoped we never returned. We had no problem following their rules and responded politely- at first- but they only enforced their rules on us. They decided they didn't like us and went on to make our experience miserable. We were the only people on the site treated like this, and also the only campers of Mexican descent.
If you are a person of any color other than white, do not waste your money at this establishment. The managers are clearly BIGOTS and OVERT RACISTS and they do not like non-whites on their property--they made this beyond clear. What a disgusting way to treat people- you should be ashamed of your actions and how you treated my family INCLUDING CHILDREN this weekend. We also have local family in Ephrata that you mistreated and taunted- it's repulsive to know that people like you still exist! You made them move their trucks then laughed at them and pointed- they were just trying to visit us for dinner.
The groundskeeper did apologize (in tears, as she was sent by the manager) and she acknowledged that she was wrong for what she said and her actions. When it was time to settle the bill, it was clear what a COWARD the manager is as he hid in the trailer and left his wife to square up the bill. An absolute COWARD! You people shouldn't have even charged after the way you treated them! You should market your campground as white only- oh wait- that's illegal!
This review is not the end but just the beginning- I want to ensure no one else receives this treatment at your RACIST-OPERATED CAMPGROUND- no one should be treated like second class citizens and my family- my children, husband, nephews, brother in laws- EVERYONE-- was treated worse than that. I look forward to an adequate resolution on this- not even sure what that looks like after you ruined everyone's weekend-- and as a side note: we've camped here before with zero issues.
