Loved staying at this camp ground! The pool was our kid’s favorite part of camping. The owner is a chill guy patrolling on his golf cart. You have to watch out for his wife though, she runs a tight ship and if she pulls up to your camp site you better have your ducks in a row. 🦆🦆🦆🦆

Safe place. Bathrooms and showers not private and definitely not great. Rates iffy. Atmosphere good. Privately owned and a little uncomfortable. Was confronted by owner after paying for a week inappropriately while showering.
