Good But Not Ideal for us

The campground was very busy with families events activities, etc. If you prefer a noisy fun experience and a more social experience with your very close neighbors, this is the pot for you. Our preferred style of camping requires more space and less noise. The pool bathrooms were gross, but the other facilities area near the tent sites was very nice and clean.

The food was great and the staff is friendly. Overall we had a great time, but its unlikely we’ll return mostly due to the noise level.

Very family friendly

I went to this campground every summer as a kid 25 years ago with my family. This was my first summer back and I was so happy to return! Now bringing my children, my 6 year old says it’s his favorite campground. Lots of things for the kids. I would have to say the only things on the negative end was the water was too low to fish/ way to many turtles and it seems like the sites were cut in half drastically reducing privacy. I will for sure be back but more picky about the sites I select…. and I miss Emma

Poor

They need to keep there firewood covered. The wood is wet and hard to burn. Sites are small and the seasonals should have rules about keeping them clean.

Close to Xfinity Center

Well patronized operation with multiple camp sites fir all sized RV’s . Staff was friendly and the campers were as well . Only observation / complaint was that the camp ground sells firewood at a reasonable price but it varies in how seasoned it is . Every Camper there seems to really enjoy their camp fires so there were lots of them . The camp ground sits in a low area compared to the surrounding geography which resulted in a pretty severe inversion. Short story is all the smoke from all the wet wooded campfires casted a heavy smoke cloud over the site . Made us think of what it would be like camping in South Lake Tahoe right now . It did not bother us that much but if you have lung issues or asthma I would pick a different campground .

Underrated concert camping

This place is pretty awesome if you’re looking to see a show at the nearby Comcast center. It’s cheap, quiet, and affordable and very close (maybe ten mins or less to the venue) I’ve been staying here for years and love it!

All the amenities. Cabins, tent or RV sites

This campground has showers (pay with quarters for hot water) activities for the kids, pool, arcade, snack bar? Ponds that after a busy weekend seem to be full of dump station over flow because the smell can be a little much at times.

Overall friendly people. They sell propane and firewood.

Older but clean campground

This campground is fairly basic and on the older side with the playground and pool. We still had a great time. The bathroom/showers were clean as was the rest of the campground. They have a little store but sells all the basics. They have laundry as well as small arcade.
