Customer Reviews
What a wonderful park! We stayed here in our RV for three nights, and were amazed by the quiet, the cleanliness, and the niceness of the camping spots for such a reasonable price. The spaces are large and well-spaced so you don't feel like anyone else is parked right on top of you. The spaces are paved, with a fire ring and a picnic table, and most of them have a nice shade tree as well. The bathhouse that was near our space was clean and modern. There is a fishing lake, and many other amenities available as well. Jeannie, the camp host was excellent....very friendly and helpful. Overall, an excellent choice. It is an easy access park with good roadways, and there is a Dollar General near the entrance in case you forgot any supplies. We will definitely stay here again!
This is a lovely well maintained county park that is currently receiving many upgrades. Currently there is a campground, lake (very easy to pick up fishing permit) 5k course, disc golf and many pavilions to reserve. Looks like there will be an updated pool, pickleball court and more.
We stayed in spot 18 for 11 days. We’re in a 45’ fifth wheel and travel full time. Spot 18 backs up to a huge empty field with a hedgerow of Trees. The site wasn’t level side to side but it wasn’t a big problem for us. Seems like a like a permanent residents but everything is very clean. The grounds are all nicely manicured and we love walking to the big pond and park everyday
Please do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. The campground host is absolutely the rudest lady we’ve ever encountered. We have given them a few tries trying to chalk it up as her just having a bad day - but NO- it’s a constant with Jeanie. She is unreasonable on check in time. We have communicated when traffic has been bad or we will be delayed by 30 mins at the most and will never accommodate us. There was another time where she was NOT at campsite 1 for check in and did not answer her phone when we called that we were there. We knew our campsite number and parked- figuring we would call again later or she would come by. When she did come by she pulled in like a bag outta hell and told us we had to stop at spot 1. Explained we did, that she was not there and that she did not answe
Beautiful place, but am concerned that it is deteriorating from apathy. I would rate it 3.5☆ if that was an option. Positives... Absolutely beautiful & quiet location with well laid out campground as well as nicely manicured surrounding grounds, also reasonably clean bath houses. County employees come by daily to clean. Negatives... no one picks up the campsites, so if an unthoughtful camper leaves the site trashy, then it stays that way. Facilities and buildings are best described as tired and used. GATES WERE NEVER LOCKED AT NIGHT. Hosts appear to be there only to collect fees and take reservations, we never once saw them out tidying up sites during our week stay. Several long term campers with clutter piled up around sites and excess vehicles parked on grass.
