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.
