Very cool campground

We had a really nice time at this campground. We stayed at the River Chalet which was very comfortable for our family of 4 (we have a 7 and 9 year old boy) Woodsy vibe with plenty of TLC in the installations. Plenty to do like tether ball and other games.

My only critique would be the bathhouse. It was clean and in good operation but there was only one men’s room near our cabin. Also the shower was clean but minimal. I would have appreciated more hooks and shelves in the shower and a sink and mirror for shaving.

Will definitely go back. The staff is really attentive and committed to making your stay great.
