Owner needs substance use counselling! Seriously.

The good first- right on the river, lots of grass, some shade, fire pits, picnic tables you can move around to set your area as you like. Horseshoe pits, volleyball net set up.Potable water, pay showers that can wash you from the nipples down (and I'm not tall)

The bad- that would be the drunk owner who can't remember who he talks to, what he says, or your cell phone number you have emailed him and your family back home has given him each of the 4 times he calls in the past 1hr too drunk to follow the conversation (my 15yr daughter finally stopped answering the phone due to his ranting)

The Ugly- having the owner Randy - come into your campsite in the morning still drunk and ranting that you got in to late....even with having reservations.Telling you how state campgrounds don't let you in after dark and how you should know how much traffic would be slowing your arrival to his campground and should have planned accordingly even if it meant taking kids out of school early!

He likes to rant about how full he could be and doesn't need your business...yet we noticed he was maybe 60% full on Memorial day weekend. We watch him chase off other's who came to camp without a "reservation" yet he had lots of spaces. He like to rant about what the hours are at other parks and that's the model he follows yet he verbally chastised a family who came "To early" (7am) to see if they could camp!! It was astounding to say the least. This guy has no idea how to run a business, I'm guessing most of his guest that repeat are either similarly inebriated, related, or don't know their are other options.

We heard he was a "good guy" we think we saw a glimpse of that when he was sober....that was not often enough. Randy can rest better knowing we won't be back while he owns or runs the place. I guess it was his family property so doubt any change will occur.
