Nothing great, nothing special.
Washrooms and showers were clean. Tent site wasn't great, too close to road. We put up our tent, slept, and decided to leave early morning without even bothering to have our breakfast since it wasn't a very nice site.
The woman that owns this campground is extremely unprofessional and rude. She told us she would charge us $15 a night to park our boat and once we got home we found out that she had charged our card $180 which is $60 per night. We called her because of the mixup, and she was extremely rude, would not change it, and even started swearing into the phone. I would never camp at this campground and urge you not too. This is a privately owned KOA so VERY different than any other any KOA we have been to. Very run down and obviously very dishonest.
Campground was roughly 300' off a busy highway and right in a residential neighborhood. Sites are tiny and mostly all sunny with a concrete pad for the picnic table that desperately needed scraping and painting. Many dead standing trees that should be removed and existing stumps that need grinding. Bathrooms were very clean and functional, no bugs in there at all. Staff was friendly and visible. I'd recommend removing the dead trees and volunteer trees that are sprouting up alongside the buildings, and get some new disease-resistant varieties started right away. Wifi was fast and easy to login, cell phone service was fine.
To start out, #63 site. Tent....The very 1st Day we arrived, we were greeted & felt welcomed! My son & I went swimming, it was a little cold but they were filling the pool at the time & eventually that cold felt GREAT, on a 94 degree day! My son & I met a woman, her dad & 2 daughters when swimming. They end up inviting my son & I to dinner at their Campsite .... We couldn't say No to that. Very enjoyable People & great Tacos! Thank You!
The New owners here...... that are carrying on tradition, LOVE WHAT they do! That's taking care of guests! I've had numerous.... GOOD conversations with Charlie & Katie/ The owners... about the Campground & Life in general! Good stuff having friendly people around in general! I was actually, super skeptical of staying here because of some reviews. Which I find almost disgusting that people are so generic & mean to leave such negative reviews. Most of the negative reviews are Karen's for sure. Male Karen's or Female Karen's. Lol. Yes there might be a few biting flies but you're also in nature! The mosquitoes aren't bad at all! So take good w the ok.
The 2nd night we had a Couple come in and stay in their Vehicle next to us. They too were super friendly! Shot the Breeze with them several times! The guy wouldn't leave me alone...... I didn't care tho. I like to shoot the breeze too. So ALL IN ALL, Kingston and I have enjoyed our stay! Very Quiet too. Even on the 4th of July as I'm typing this. I don't think I've ever been to a campground where it was this quiet to be honest! I love it. So don't always believe some reviews, because there are way too many negative people in this world! You might miss out on this hidden gem! Always check it out for yourself & come stay here!
We camped in a tent, the site was spacious and clear. The dog park was close and clean. The showers were clean and safe. Very nice!
