Quiet, Relaxing, Getaway

Had a wonderful trip this weekend at North Fork. Will be going back soon. The camp host were very nice and very welcoming. We loved it here! I have Verizon Wireless and I had great cellular service.

Very scenic and nice layout!

This is a great campsite and it very well spaced and provides excellent scenery and there is plenty to do. Only issue we have come across was that the electric service on our site kept tripping the breaker. Only running ac and a CPAP machine and the breaker would not hold......very disappointing…
