Colonial Woods Family Resort

Ok so let me start off by saying. If we still had our smaller travel trailer this review would’ve been at least 4 stars. However this place is not the place for you if you have a fifth wheel. The roads are very narrow, pretty sizable boulders on both sides, trees are very low and need to be trimmed (almost took my ac out with a huge limb). Now if you’re not big rig camping like we do, this place is great for you. Close to the ringing rocks and three other towns. We were able to do so much even though it rained the entire weekend we were there.

Even when the weather was cold and rainy and we were stuck in the tents, I thoroughly enjoyed the scenery, the ambiance and the friendly staff at the front desk. There were areas for communal activities (where we met some very nice people!) and plenty of space for our 4 person tent and a pop up canopy over the picnic table. Dogs loved it too!

Overall I think this campground has a lot to offer if you have a family and are looking to provide them with activities. Fishing in the pond insite, swimming in the pool and lots of family weekends throughout the season.

However, for whatever reason the sites are all covered in stone, and I dont mean just the area where you park, I mean it was like camping on a stone driveway. Also, while the seasonal sites have lots of room the transient sites are much more on top of eachother.

The staff were pleasant and in general the place was very well maintained, the sites just weren't "comfortable"

We appreciate that they haven’t charged us extra in the past for our kids. Our kids love the pool and splash area. Dump station location isn’t ideal on a busy morning. I heard they might work on a second dump location and was told to ask if it’s ok to stick around until it dies down if our site isn’t needed soon. Friendly campground. Go visit Ringing Rocks park with a hammer while you are here. While it’s obviously busier, we liked being below the pool where our kids could fish in the pond and easy access to the pool.

Staff was very friendly. We had a group site which was perfect for 6 campers. We went on Father’s Day weekend and they had nice arts and crafts for the kids to do for dad.

I see the reviews are all over the place for this campground. In my opinion you’ll find seasonal sat most every campground. I just don’t like when their site becomes nasty and unkempt. But I like this campground. We (wife and kids) were here twice about 6 years ago. I remember playing bingo and I won the last round, about $40. They had a lot to do I remember that.

We had such a fun time during the summer between the pool, fishing at the pond and all the amazing amenities!! Just walking around the campground is beautiful. Will definitely come back, the best campground for complete family fun!

Been coming here for years with friends and have made new friends with many of the Seasonals. Always a ton of scheduled crafts and to do for the kiddos and adults alike. Clean areas Pool, Bathhouses etc. Friendly staff and owners.

Sites are very close together. Site numbers are on the back of the sites, very hard to see from the road. Very few showers. Rules are not enforced, especially quiet hours and unsupervised kids.

Very friendly campers. Most of the residents are seasonal and glampers, but very friendly and like to party. We are tent campers and went at the end of the season. We had 5 tents one per-site which wasn’t ideal, but we were placed in front of the closed pool where we took all 5 sites and made one. At first I was mad but we made it work and we were the envy of everyone. Many year round campers have golf carts. The one downside, some of the year round RV sites look run down and are gross looking, we did hear they were going to do a clean out of those sites so hopefully it will look nicer. The actual tent sites are next to the road, which is a shame because we seem to always get the crap locations furthest from the bathrooms, this makes no sense when RV’s have bathrooms and tents are basic camping. Definitely recommend a stay though, the owners have great weekend events for adults and kids. We will be going back and making this our end of the year annual camping location!
