From jct Hwy 47 & US 9: Go 2-3/4 mi S on US 9, then 500 ft W over tracks on Bennetts Crossing, then 500 ft N on Hwy 626. (Seashore Rd).
we stayed here for 5 nites; while the staff was great, in reading the reviews below a response was that this campground catered more to full timers and suggested another campground. First, then why do you advertize to overnite campers? (at a rate half of what we were charged) Second, it ALWAYS helps to know the OVERALL length & width of a site. We were put on a site /G20 where we were told a 26 foot trailer could fit (with a truck in front of it) and our 36" class A RV only filled up just over 1/2 the site depth with plenty of additional width for our little car. We were also told a 24' trailer could fit on the site next to us and due to the trees only a tent would be able to get in there. We moved once, and were told on a sat nite that NO sites were available when we literally saw DOZENS of empty sites we could fit on. FYI, some other full time places-if the site renter is gone and the site is vacant at the time actually relet the rented/vacant site and split the income 50/50 with the site renter. It's a nice place but one of the most important things is knowledge of the sites if you are going to have short term campers. We were there as a senior couple, so we didn't need/use the pool, beach/pond/pool which were all nicely kept. FYI, our RV facebook (80K) group has been made aware too.
What a wonderful vacation. Stayed in a cabin. The housekeeping did a great job so clean.
The lake, the pool, the staff I can't say enough!
Will definitely stay again!
We have been RVing with our children (human & furry) for over 3 years and this was our first time at this campground. I’m sad to share that it is now our least favorite campground…ever. Other than the super-kind workers and great location on the Shore, the clientele left much to be desired. Throughout the weekend, there were unsupervised children throwing trash on the ground and loudly cussing up a storm. Golf carts zipped quickly past our site and cars/trucks flew by quickly, too. We walked around the campground and wished that there were more options for RV visitors with full hookups in the back of this large campground (where it’s more quiet). I’m sad to say that we will not return to this campground.
We have been coming here for 6 years. We absolutely love it, it’s a safe place for kids to wonder around on bike adventures. The lake and clean are always clean and attended to. The store is the largest camp store I have ever seen. The office staff is amazing and take care of veterans. I LOVE that they have a gym. Some sites are small, some large, some more private than others but all offer decent shade and tree coverage, it’s really on you to look at the map and make a good selection. I have noted that over the past couple years, bathroom cleaning has degraded a bit with soap dispensers sometimes empty and some shower drains with the same clump of hair remaining for multiple days. Quiet hours are also lax on weekends. We stayed there for three trips this summer and the only nights we got decent sleep were midweek as the parents party late and the kids party early. With a pop up we hear everything. However, we have many memories there and will continue to return and hope certain improvements are made as we don’t expect perfection and this resort tops others.
We have been coming here for a few years now and absolutely love the campground. This weekend was a different experience. We arrived Thursday night and Friday morning were told that the lake would be closed due to a shortage of lifeguards. It was over 80 degrees that day. The pool is a swim at your own risk amenity and there are signs everywhere that there is no lifeguard on duty, but there were 3-4 lifeguards at the pool throughout the day. The explanation from the head lifeguard Marie was that there was an issue with the pool deck and it was very slippery and hazardous and they needed the lifeguards at the pool. The logic here is lost on me. Why wouldn't you close the safety hazard and open the lake?? And the pool deck was actually dangerously slippery. The lake opened Saturday morning when it was 50 degrees and had no one in it. It was a very disappointing experience.
