GuideWe stayed in loop b south, which is really not a loop but a dead end. Very quiet, and we were the only people in the loop for a couple of days. Sites are nice and level and large. Vegetation between sites for privacy.
TravelerSites are more secluded than other camp grounds but can be a bit small. Bathrooms are nice and dumpsters available for trash. Family type of campground so not the quietest place.
TravelerIt’s a great location and within walking distance distance to Commercial Street.
The campground staff is very friendly and helpful and there is a little store on property that you can buy thing like milk, snacks and essentials for camping. They also have t-shirts, etc for purchase.
Campground d is very quiet and spacious and lots of wildlife around. A turkey wandered thru our site.
Sites are easy to get in and out of. Kind of close but not a problem for us.
We will absolutely come here again!!!
