ScoutMy family stayed here for a few months while my husband worked in the area. The new ownership is spot-on what you would hope for! Super responsive, great communication, and immediately fixes any issues. If you call and they dont answer, they are probably helping a customer. Call back in an hour or two.
Grassy area for kids to play, creek and rock bank area to play as well. Quiet, no crazy parties or loud music. Very honest owners. Highly recommend!
Laundry on-site, or nearby laundromat
Library within minutes or 2 more within a 20 minute drive
Recently upgrading their wifi
Plenty of homeschool co ops in the area
2 parks within 5 minutes of a drive
Oxford lake and Choccolocco park within 20 minute drive
2 grocery stores, dollar general and dollar tree within 10 minutes of a drive, Walmart etc in Oxford.
ScoutNice concrete pads, park is ran very well by the city...clean and organized campground
ScoutI've been here for the month of April it's on the water and Good people around no washer and dryer but the laundry mat is less than 5 miles away in both directions there is a restaurant and a bar less than a half mile away it's close to everything WiFi isn't that good had to get hot spot on my phone I've enjoyed it here if your into fishing and getting out on the water and I do it's great ya do hear the train going down the track but I've gotten used to it and it's not that bad I'll stay here again
ScoutThe campground host is so accommodating! It’s a small but beautiful place to park and enjoy the outdoors! There is a lake as well as boat ramp to fish. It’s quiet and relaxing. The sites aren’t squished together so it’s nice to relax outside! The only drawback is there is no laundry on site, so if you are a monthly camper like my family was, you have to go into the nearest city to wash. Other than that, I highly recommend this campground!!!
ScoutWe got here an hour before sun down. It’s a nice ride up on a very steep at times dirt road. It’s private but there’s a ton of houses in the area with people driving up and down the road. Once the sun went down there was too many outside noises for us to feel comfortable so we packed up. Very strange noises. Very buggy as well
TravelerOur family had a great time camping… we are locals and this was a trial run with our new camper. The camping community here is great! The facilities are definitely dated but we didn’t have to use them so I can’t say what they were inside. The playground was fun for my kiddos although it really wasn’t age appropriate for our 3 year old twins very well. I’m not sure if it was just because it was 4/20 weekend but the only drawback was the pretty regular smell of the devils lettuce… I used to partake myself so I’m not downing any ones way of relaxing. We probably will not be back as I enjoy a little bit more family friendly environments these days.
ScoutI just followed the cords with Google maps and led me to a gated area with no trespassing signs... guess a lot can happen in 5 years... don't recommend this spot anymore.
TravelerDidn’t expect anyone to be out in the front office but they were in there and gave a detailed description of the campsite and locations. Nice and quiet camping area great to just get away for a day or three will definitely come back
