Such a peaceful place to get away. So much stuff to keep all the kids occupied. The mini golf is huge and the play areas are endless. Great experience for a low price. Made true family memories.

New ownership, mostly new staff. But all the employees we encountered were very pleasant, helpful, and friendly. Some sites not very level, bring extra blocks! Some of the playground equipment needs to go. Overall a nice campground, and as others said, great place for kids!
