Great place

Only place still run like a family campground should be run. Wonderful owners. All campers were kind. Very quiet place at night. I stayed 4 days and it was great. Yes I did have to mail a check for my reservation. Most of the sites are seasonal and there are very nice tent sites as well. Bathrooms and campground were very clean also. I will be returning to this great place.

Would be great...if we could actually make a reservation.

The place LOOKS really nice, but they don't seem to want anyone to actually visit.  

The only way to make a reservation is by calling them (and then apparently you have to mail them a check or money order to reserve your spot!?!), but I have called three times now across the span of a week and a half and haven't received any kind of response.

It is also a bit confusing, since they only seem to talk about "weekend" or "seasonal" campers...since I can't get ahold of anyone, I have to assume that they don't allow for camping during the week unless you pay for a "seasonal" membership?  Seems like an odd, financially damaging business policy, but again, noone seems to be interested in correcting my train of thought, so I'm left with my assumptions.

Again, the place looks really nice, and my family was excited to go, but the fact that their methods of taking reservations and payments is still dragging 40 years behind the times (and they don't seem to be interested in picking up the phone) has forced me to move on to another, more professionally run location.
