Quiet, Spacious Campground

We knew next to nothing about this campground before coming here, it was just a week long stop on our way to Maine. We were especially concerned as we got deeper and deeper into the country and further and further from civilization because if this was an awful place it’s not like we could just hop over to another campground nearby. But we were very pleasantly surprised by how great this place was!

Pros: One of the quietest and most spacious campgrounds we’ve ever stayed in. As you’ll see in the pictures, our campsite was probably a good 200-300 feet or more from the other sites on either side of us so we basically had a large front yard. Throughout the week you could basically hear a pin drop outside, it was only on the weekend that it got “noisier but that was because families had come in like you would expect so it wasn’t bad at all. Each site has a picnic table and a fire ring which is always nice. They have a small but very nice pool with a couple tables and some poolside chairs and they provide life jackets for kids and even a poolside cornhole game. My wife and I work remotely and, even though it wasn’t amazing, we had good enough wi-fi through them to be able to work on most of the week and even stream tv with. We did have to rely on our jet pack from time to time but anyone who knows about campground wi-fi knows to even be able to use it at all is a huge plus!

Cons: Really the only major con was the phone service. We have Verizon and my work phone is T-Mobile and at most would get 2 bars of LTE but it mostly stayed at 1 so if we weren’t connected to the internet or our jetpack our phones were basically useless. But again, out in the country like we were it’s to be expected. There’s also not much in the way of grocery stores or restaurants nearby. There’s one small grocery store and a couple restaurants about 9 minutes away but no big store or fast food place (not that we needed fast food but sometimes it’s nice to have that option when you don’t want to cook). The nearest Walmart is about 25-30 minutes away so just have everything you need before you come.

Overall: This was one of the best campgrounds we have stayed in in our nearly 1 year of full time traveling. You can tell most people here are either seasonal or full time residents but unlike most campgrounds with that, all their sites were very nice and well kept up. And unlike so many campgrounds we’ve stayed at, people were out sitting by fires or riding bikes and just enjoying the campground which brings a nice charm to it. The only reason it didn’t get a 5 star from us is because of the cell service and quite honestly because we’re very careful to just hand out 5 star ratings unless we’re absolutely blown away. But we would definitely recommend staying here for a week or a month or however long you need to, you’ll enjoy it for sure!

Good spot

I really enjoyed this campground. We were across the street from the main campground which was nice and quiet. Right up my alley! We’ll be back for sure!

Fantastic tenting experience

First time tent camping in 25 years. Rented one electric site and onenon-electric right next to it for a two tent set up for my family of five adults and two children and one dog. The sites were level, clear, and pristine. A small wooded area separated the tinting area from the RV site with a nice little grove of trees between each campsite. We had a full view of the playground where the young ones had a blast! The pool down the road was perfect for the kids and just right for adults to get in and cool off. Firewood is available at the office and while we didn’t spend time at the pond where there are canoes/kayak for use it was very beautiful.

The bathhouse was okay, only reason I subtracted a star. It is part of a nice sized pavilion with a game room, and washer/dryer, & picnic tables for bingo or other activities. I truly appreciate that during this pandemic time they asked all campers with facilities to use their own showers to more safely accommodate tent campers.

I wanted to camp someplace close to home for a previously scheduled doctor appointment so this place was perfect! I picked up things we forgot to bring in town enroute. It wasn’t until day 4 of 6 that we checked out the camp store. There’s NO need to go to town! They have everything you could need! Including pillows! We ran out of paper plates on day four. By the time we realized & approached the store it was closed. However, the gentleman who phones/works there asked what we needed. He said he would let Theresa know. He arrived in a golf cart at our campsite 20 minutes later with a pack of paper plates! Talk about blown-away! The owner Theresa was very pleasant and helpful and very accommodating when on our last day we were not ready to leave our campsite by 11 AM. (Noobie campers.) We didn’t leave the site till 130 but she worked with us. Very gracious.

The campground is approximately 15 minutes from Rickets Glen State Park where there is lots of hiking for all levels of experience along a series of magical waterfalls! The campgrounds are slightly hilly but each site is level. I just loved this place. We camped Monday to Saturday early August and and only one other campsite Was occupied till Friday night. I am excited to return. And I highly recommend!
