Hide Away Park Campground

Really nice staff. Very friendly. Peaceful campground. Here’s the thing though- the lakeshore is not swimable, or even wade-able. It’s completely filled with thick algae. Even my dog wouldn’t walk in it, let alone drink it. Could be the extreme heat over the last few weeks. Who knows. Like I said - it’s peaceful. They are friendly. The campsites really vary in size. I got a really small one but no neighbors so it’s fine.

The other campers looked in my windows twice while I was here. Stole my hose as soon as I took it out. Lot's of dogs not on a leash. Tons of fleas. Couple animal farms too close. Not allowed to swim in the water. And the management can kick you out with no refund and does that often.

After a long work day and night at a convention center, my family and I are desperate for somewhere to plug in for the night at 6am and find this place on the map. I knew it was too late in the night to call ahead, so the plan was to find a spot to sleep and pay them in the morning. As soon as we parked, the manager rolled up in her car and found my late night parking unreasonable and shamed me for coming in late. As if working late and having no nearby campsite was my fault. She first requested $75 and i explained we just need to sleep until daylight so she said it is $55 and needed to be paid now. I paid her in cash and she again scorned me for coming in late and that I should be out in the morning like I stated. In the morning I checked her rates online and it’s supposed to be $45 for the 50 amp hookup. No problem with the site, just management.
