Went for my nephew's wedding. Looks like a nice place to go if you like campgrounds. The public restrooms were kind of small and not very handicap-friendly. That's the only negative I could find, and I only mention it so people are aware of it.

Camped here for 5 days while waiting for our planned diesel truck repair at Little Power Shop . I noticed the owner working on some playground equipment and said I needed something to do .Next day I was in town with their work truck and picking up lumber and hardware for my planned replacement of the "see-saws ( teeter-totters) ".Had a great time and enjoyed volunteering , doing something I liked very much.Owners were great and they keep the park as nature would like it to be in this beautiful area . The campground is quiet and clean . Great job to the owners !

Rustic place, lots of permanent sites, many kids running around. Enjoyed watching a few playing hide and seek. Planned activities on some weekends for them. Didn't have any kids with us but nice to see. Unfortunately the adult party decided that it was a good idea to dig out the karaoke machine at 2 am. Still going strong at 5:40😣. Owner apologized as we were packing up. He bought it a year or 2 ago and was making improvements. Took names of the partiers and hopefully won't admit them again.

My experience here was just ssoooo horrible... we accidentally made a mess and they just kicked us out. They also have a bear issue...they make a joke out of it. They also blamed stuff that we didn't do. If you choose this campground...just be careful because they will kick you out and keep your money...no refund. Also, they have a WiFi that doesn't even work at all. All workers are just rude to us. Please,please please don't choose this campground.Plus, they think it is damage when all it was is mud. We didn't do anything else. Remember, dont come here. Also, as you can see the owner assumed my gender, I'm not "Ms.Parker"

We camp here often. It is our summer home. Great amenities, mini golf, pool, beautiful setting. Not a loud campground, good place to unwind and relax. Water and electric sites available. Owners on site and keep the campground busy with weekly activities for both young and old.

Picturesque. Wooded trails. four wheeler, pet friendly, yet quiet.Very family friendly, established multi season clientelle and easy to meet people and make friends , place feels like a neighborhood. Reasonable rates. Appears to be more geared to season long campers rather than transient.

Stayed here last week during a bicycle trip. This place has a bear problem. They know it but don't have bear-resistant dumpsters. In fact, they seem to take it as a joke as evidenced by the mural painted on one of the dumpsters that reads "BETTUM'S BEAR BUFFET". The night I was there a bear raided the dumpsters. As I was leaving early in the morning I came face to face (20 feet at most) with a black bear somewhere in the neighborhood of 350 lbs., if not more. There was also a pile of scat less than 100' from my tent. Luckily, things did not go south, but the situation could have ended badly.

This is the most horrible experience I've ever had. Their pool is so nasty. And, they think it's a HUGE problem with mud. They call mud "damage". I have to exactly agree with Itz Parkerz!

Great atmosphere, wonderful for families. Many friendly and accommodating staff and campers. Plentiful ATV trails, a pool, and playground with events every weekend.

It was a nice clean place, everyone was friendly I would highly recommend it. The only problem is the store is not open for very long, so if you need ice or anything you can't get it.

We stopped in to get a tent site, but after viewing the tent sites, it was kind of hard to get to due to the road conditions. The tent sites were a bunched and tables scattered everywhere. If you improve the tent sites, I'll be back.
