Holly Lake Campsites

From reading the older reviews, it does feel like the owners have put a lot of work into improving it. I was more than comfortable with the family using the bathhouse. The newly renovated office/restaurant/camp store is nice, had everything we needed. The kids loved the animals up front that you can feed. Pool was well maintained. Our first night was rough because there were some campers who partied hard, playing loud music pretty late (well after quiet time). We could not find any after-hours contact for staff. However, the party campers were not an issue after the first night. I assume the issue was handled by the campground. We did enjoy the remainder of our stay.

We took our first trip in our new pop up here. I will begin by saying we like a clean cut, family style and less of a party drinking style of camping. The things we liked were: We could take our dogs, the staff was nice, good hook ups for our pop up, they had a beautiful pool and splash pad, loved the goats, deer and ducks in the pond, close to the beach and nicely wooded. Things we didn't like: The bath houses were a bit gross, we were in the center of many long term RVs and the night time language of many around our site was definitely NOT family friendly to say it nicely, unfortunately their camp store and amenities were all closed for renovations which couldn't be helped on their part, the park staff pretty much let anything go for conduct which is not what we are used to or comfortable with.

Things went ok and it looks like they are improving the place which is great but we probably won't be back because the atmosphere was just not our style.

This campground is huge! But is quiet. I believe most or all of their sites are pull through. Everyone is very friendly.

The campground itself is not well kept at all. Overgrown trees, trash on the ground, unkept property, pot holes. We've boondocked in better locations. The place looks nothing like the photos online. To pay $60 a night (full hook up) for this is ridiculous & they won't refund your money if you leave early.  I am especially mad about not refunding us. They had TONS of open spots, so we weren't stopping anyone else from using our spot. 

It seems that most of the campers here are year round residents and there are a ton of abandoned RVs (we saw three literally sinking into the ground just within the area of our site). 

Also, the wifi that you have to pay to use is awful. We're SUPER disappointed in this place. We left and drove 30 minutes down the road to Delaware Seashore State Park, which is wonderful - clean - walking distance to the beach - and less expensive. 

To contribute one positive thing - we arrived at Holly Lake very late (10 minutes before they closed at 11) and the front desk called to confirm we'd still be coming and provided clear directions. I thought that was kind of them. 

Bottom line: NOT AT ALL AS ADVERTISED. Do not stay here.
