Great staff! Ok-ish campground

This one is a tough one to rate/review. We did not have a bad experience at Lawrence Creek, in fact, John was wonderful and accommodating. It is just seems like everything else kind of falls short. Wondering if it had something to do with new owners or the time of year we visited?
The list of amenities include laundry, restrooms/showers, waterfront sites, campstore, bar/grill, campfire rings at each site and full hook ups. The bar/grill/campstore/laundry are all housed in the only building on the property with an attached patio. This seems to be the main focus of the property since there are ads for bar/grill along the road and along the river. However, the campground itself is lackluster and dull. There were also random things in random places, the extended stay or permanent residents do not pick up after their animals (found this out the hard way), and we are still unsure about showers as the best we found was a shed that had restroom signs on it and keycode locks on the doors. Kind of got the feeling like this was the place that this was a place that “roamers” frequented. All in all, I that under new ownership maybe these little items are already on the list of things to tackle. If so, what a perfect place this will be and definitely worth checking out again. Maybe John can fill us all in….

Nice & Quaint

We arrived this past weekend and I am very satisfied from our first night experience. We walked the trail Saturday morning and walked around the site (which is small but nice). We have a site right on the creek and have seen a few boats come through. The owner is very nice and communicative. They have a Creekside Bar with a nice patio area. Also, for a small campground they have a well stocked campsite store.
