Spacious sites

We are staying in site 25 and it’s absolutely amazing. We are camping with family who have the spot beside us in the front. Directly behind us is the playground which is a total win if camping with kiddos. Will return.

Jennings Ferry/Roebuck Landing

Absolutely loved this place! We stayed at site #36 which had a large deck overlooking the water. I wish I had gotten better pictures of our campsite... We ate at Roebuck Landing! (So good) We caught a few brim off the bank and overall had a great time with friends! Can’t wait to go back!

Nice small COE park

Close to my home base. Nice level site. Clean. Friendly hosts. One mile from small store with essentials. 7 miles from supermarket. No bad sites here. #22 gets satellite year round. Fish from site #13. Only reason for 4 stars is no FHU’s. Be sure to try the food at Roebuck Landing restaurant (1 mile away).
