We just got back from site #88 over Memorial Day weekend. Overall, I’d rate this campground 5/5! It’s so nice, clean, and very well maintained. Nothing felt dated, everything was smooth. Our BIG disappointment was the pool. We knew Memorial Day would be risky for swimming but we chose Oasis due to their advertising of having a heated pool. It was ICE cold. I heard someone say the heater wasn’t working the day before. I think if you advertise a heated pool, management should have all the kinks worked out and pool WARM by opening weekend. It does make me wonder if they heat it at all.
Another thing to note is that our site was back in a newer area so there was no shade. It was hot with direct sun and felt a bit like a desert with very sparse grass. So plan ahead with tents and shelters if you stay in the front of the campground.
The pond was awesome, the beach bar was fun, the bouncy pillow was excellent. I do highly recommend this campground and we will be back.
We debated whether to check out this place or go to the Dells, as usual, for a water park day. So glad we chose Oasis! It is affordable and so much fun! Both the kids and the adults had a blast. It is certainly challenging and the kids had fun laughing at us out of shape adults falling into the water. Bring your own cooler and lawn chairs; a sun umbrella is a good idea too as the trees are young and there isn't much shade. They kindly provide life jackets.
This is a treasure of a find right now, I do worry that it wouldn't be nearly as much fun on a busy weekend day, or once it gains popularity and gets packed. Go now while it's still a hidden gem!
This was our 5th? Time going and we're thinking our last. Just because our teens are older now. Campground is very well kept and very nice, they have a nice little store with necessities but prices are a little high on food. Don't forget your smores supplies! Lol The pool and bathrooms are nice, they have fun activities for the kids, they have fireworks for the 4th and had a band in 2022 (but not in 2021 when we were there) there's a swingset, gaga ball ring, jumping pillow and of course the water park! They do provide life jackets but all are adult xs or smaller. You can bring your own. People of all ages wear a life jacket (but it's not required) because trust me.... running on that thing and falling in all the time and swimming... you get EXHAUSTED!! You WILL wear your kids out here!! 🥳
First time I've ever been there, my better half and his son used to go. Minus one star as I think the cost to get in, just for the use of the pond and pool was really overpriced IMO. I could see if it had included a campsite, or a free burger n fries or a couple adult drink tickets included, that price would've made more sense. If you go here, it is best to bring your own lounge chairs and a shade tent or canopy of you want to find shade as there really is none and the ones there (I wasn't sure or not) are from what campers or others brought and set up on their own. However there is an abundance of activities for kids all day long which was cool. Was fun to see the bubble machine BUT I heard several kids crying because the bubbles made their eyes sting. Isn't there something more natural and sting-free/burning free that could be used to make the bubbles? I'm really glad that we had use of the small chlorine pool though. That water was the perfect temperature, there's shade under the pavilion. I like that we could bring our own floaties and pool toys too. Overall a fun day for all of us, the food and drinks were good but I still think at $25 PER PERSON is insane. Not even cheaper for kids under 10.
First timers here. I’ll list the pros and the cons. Starting with the pros
•sites were labeled nicely so they were able to find.
•bathroom was clean. My husband said it was one of the cleanest bathrooms he’s been in while camping.
•the bounce pad was a blast. I haven’t laughed that hard in a very long time nor have I stepped foot on a trampoline in 15 years!
• so much to do! There was shuffle boards, horseshoes, Gaga ball, etc to keep kids out of the campers and outside!
• the inflatable obstacle course was a blast. I think I enjoyed watching our husbands jump off it or slipping than anything.
• the foam party was the highlight of our day Saturday. The kids had so much fun getting buried in bubbles.
• my dog LOVED the dog park. I was so happy to see one fenced in and all for our four legged friend to run around in unleashed with other dogs.
•cookie decorating was a fun idea for the kids to do before we went swimming. As a mom with multiples, $2/cookie was kind of expensive (in my opinion)
•lots of nice stuff in the gift shop. Spent $25 in there on toys/candy and a cute magnet for our fridge that says the campground name on it.
•sewer right on sight so you didn’t have to drag your camper offsite somewhere to dump.
Cons
• lack of rain made the grass at the sites very dry. Felt like walking on needles.
• soooo sandy at the sites all of us booked. Ironically we weren’t near the water/beach. Our camper floors and beds were covered in sand.
• the flies were TERRIBLE! Regular house flies were BITING. I think we brought a dozen flies home with us from camping that I can’t get out of my camper ha! The gnats were awful as well, swarming your legs and arms. And bug spray didn’t help. Reluctantly they went away at night. Absolutely no mosquitoes so that was at least pleasant!
•No recycling? So sad. For the planet. For the kids’ futures. For the landfill. Please consider getting a recycle bin. We separated everything during our stay and were shocked there wasn’t one, after hearing from another camper saying they have asked for one and the owners don’t listen.
•check out times at 11, suck. We’ve been to many campgrounds that do later checkouts after 1pm and anything after is extra which is way easier to leave relaxed and not rushed to make sure we have everything cleaned up/put back.
However, with all of this being said, I think this is officially our favorite campground we’ve been to to date and we cannot wait to book many trips next summer for long stays. A lot of my cons are nothing to do with the campground. Mother Nature plays a huge factor on the weather conditions, the bugs and or dryness of the grass.
