This place is awful! We had a tree fall on our camper the first week and things went downhill from there. Dead trees for electric poles, horrible roads, muddy campsites, and best of all nasty owners who attack people for posting negative reviews! I actually had their daughter threaten to sue me! Yep this is the level of greedy people you will deal with here.
We stayed here for work and had no choice as all the other campgrounds were booked up, so we were stuck in this mud pit. Sunday night we had a lot of rain and we woke up Monday morning to about 5” of water on the ground. The water drained off and we cleaned up the mess which consisted mostly of putting all my tools and such inside my gazebo on top of a table. If we had been warned that this area was prone to intense flooding when the river rises, we would have done much more, like move out! But we were not, and we were not familiar enough with the area to know what to expect.
Well, what we did not expect was to be woken up at 3:30am by 2 crying teenage girls on our picnic table. Turns out the river had breached its banks and water was now 3’ on the ground with an intense current flow. A family trying to escape had their truck flood and sent their kids to run over to the “safety” of our picnic table. We immediately kicked into rescue mode and started pulling people out. I drove to the police station and reported the situation and then headed back where most of the people who were there for work were pulling the weekend campers out. Eventually the owners showed up and opened the office for 10 minutes. They stood around laughing about how this happens all the time and how there was nothing they could do until the water went down and they could start cleaning up. Well, I guess it never crossed their mind that they COULD use their backhoe and dump truck to create a water break for those trying to get out or check the campsites to make sure everyone was out and safe, or tow people out of the roads where their vehicles were stuck. They could also have started calling their summer residents and informing them that all their belongings were currently floating down the river or set up a coffee station for cold wet campers to dry off and warm up a bit while they waited for the water to recede. Instead they locked up the office and went to sit on their golf cart on a high bank and watched as people tried to save their RV’s from tipping over.
As our son started to hook his truck up to his camper to pull it out, Shawn began screaming at him to stop “making things worse” when he drove over a grass area that had turned into a lake. This turned into a screaming match between several campers who had been working for the last 5 hours to make sure all the campers were safe and the owners who had their butts parked on their golf cart watching. We lost all of our outside items but were lucky that the water didn’t make it into our underbelly or worse. We managed to get packed up and hooked up, despite a 4’ wash out in front of our RV. We managed to find a great new place that opened up mobile home slots to us for the emergency. Once we got settled in we checked our bank account and discovered these people had already charged our card for more money despite the fact that we were paid up through mid-August. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS!!!!
