Pride of America Camping Resort

My first time here, ever.

This place is amazeballs!! Friend rented a cabin, I wasn't sure what to expect, so I looked at the website. Well, the website reeeallly doesn't do it justice. Wayy better than what it looks like.

The cabin? Pristine!

The service? We had an issue with the toilet, they were there within 5 mins, problem solved, with a smile!

We had a big fire the first night, next morning the fire pit was full of ash. Called, they came an emptied it immediately, with a smile!

The pools are warm and fun!

The lake is a blast with several floating trampolines, etc!

Quiet time is 11, and of course we were up past that hanging out and having fun, no hassle like other places. We chilled by 12 of course, but it was nice not being 'policed', if that makes sense.

The bar? Best bloody Mary I've had in years! And a rocking late night scene if you're into that!

Restaurant? Excellent food!

Booze Bingo was a blast! They gave away several hundred beers, and several hundreds of dollars, even tho I didn't win lol had a great time playing...

Golf carts! So many cool camps with cool, welcoming people!

I've been to hundreds of festivals, and this place felt like that, but better.

Can't recommend it enough.

Worth every single penny.

If you're considering going here, stop thinking about it and book it.

So far this place is on our top list. Our full hook up was just about 2min walk to everything. Everyone works very hard to keep everything clean and clean it was including bathrooms and showers. Got to really love them big old trees and shade, just about like a forest feel. Camp site spacing was huge like 50 feet apart or more, there is not a lot of full hook up's, they mostly cater to seasonal folks. This place is not huge or small, just the right size so you don't feel like a sardine in traffic, we felt relaxed and comfortable. Restaurant has very good food, our liquid lunch was well done by the bartender. There is plenty of activities, even teenagers gave up their phone and went to play, that is a miracle in it's self LOL.

During our stay we did have to take cover and shelter in place do to severe storms, which brings up another issue, no sirens of any kind anywhere. Considering we are all staying in tin can's it would not end well for anyone. Thank god cell service was pretty good. So, there is so much more to tell you, but you should just go there and check it out for yourself. After each outing our family votes, everyone voted to return.

I will start off my review with saying, there is nothing wrong with this campground. I am simply posting a review so that others learn from our experience.

This campground is on the tighter side of things, the roads are narrow and the spots are not that big. The amenities were in good shape and the pool area is awesome, and I have zero complaints about the staff. This was just not what I expected from an environment standpoint. Its more so a "party" campground than anything. If this is what you're looking for, this is absolutely the place for you. If you're looking for a quiet getaway like we were, I wouldn't pick this place. They have a dance floor, and blast music until 11pm and most of the time the adults are hanging around drinking while their kids are running wild. Again, this isn't a negative review, just something for people to reference when planning their trip here. If my children were a little older, I think we would have absolutely had more fun and maybe when they are older we will be back.

This place has so many memories for me. My friend moved to Florida, but his family kept his camper up here, so when he comes up I get to come to the campground and see him. I usually only see him 3 times a year so its really fun. I also met my girlfriend here. It's super fun, I stayed in a cabin one time, it was very small, but clean and nice. Come during Halloween, it's really fun looking at all of the decorations on the campers and carts. Overall 100/10, absolutely amazing, one of my favorite places to be, ever!
