Not our first time camping here, but always a great experience that we truly look forward to! Best campground experience we’ve ever had. The staff is exceptional, miles of paved trails, level sites, and the nicest, cleanest bathrooms, hands down. We will be back!
Christmass light exhibit was really neat. Adults & kids loved it. Best to circle twice as it's easy to miss some of what's going on. Particularly look for the lightening at the volcano and watch where Santa's golf ball goes.
The campground is nice and the restroom and showers are outstanding. It's a bit expensive, but probably worth it if you need a full hookup. Unfortunately, there are only 6 electric/water sites that are a bit less expensive.
