GuideEarly evening online reservation..a tad challenging finding the site upon our arrival but we managed ok......decent site near pool, fairly level, safe, secure,clean bath house, reasonably priced for an out of state visitor. Highly recommend....Would visit again if I pass through this region in the future
TravelerVery accommodating and friendly staff. Resort is well maintained with spacious spots. We have stayed here often and will continue to do so in the future.
RangerStopped for the night while passing through Ohio. Conveniently off the main hwy. The staff at the office were super helpful and friendly and the office was open until 7 on the Sunday we can by. Most sites where we were (#203) were pull through a on concrete. There’s a pool also - although we didn’t have time to check it out. The dump station provides the “stinky slinky” so you don’t have to use yours 🙃 Nice big lake for boats and fishing.
ScoutIt's a nice campground, convenient to the Interstate, but the sites are very close together, so you'd better be on good terms with your neighbor. Having cable and a cafe that delivers to your site is a real plus, but the wifi if iffy.
ScoutTheir sites are spacious and have many things for kids to do, swimming, scuba diving lessons, park, pool, splash pad, plus the float pads on the beach part.
GuideMy husband and I and our 2 dogs stayed 4 nights at the campground for an event. Right outside of Hartford city you never know what to expect. We were pleasantly surprised at how nice the campground is. There is a pool, a lake in the back for fishing, 2 kids parks, a mini putting area, and lots of open field. No noise from traffic, you are close to Hartford city if you need anything (just don’t go to the McDonald’s). Lots of other campers here that seem to have annual stays. We choose spot 108 because it was in the back and pretty secluded, no one else was around us. Picnic tables and firepits at the sites. They also have buddy campsites. We didn’t use the wifi but it was accessible. They also have a rec area and have campsite chat nights, games, and all the fun stuff. Great place and would stay again!
ScoutDo you have kids? They have it covered, from playground, to lake with inflatables, train rides, Holiday fun.
Adults? I see Cornhole every weekend, Campfires, Holiday Events, Golf Cart Parades, DJ's or Live Bands on the weekend, Friendly Seasonal Folks always up for a good time.
Ameneties? Bath Houses, Laundry, General Store, Small Grill and Pizza Oven. (Pizza is not half bad either).
Amish make their presence felt on a few weekends throughout the season, from fresh Bakery Goods to a Healthy Sized Sausage Egg Biscuit. (You won't be disappointed)
Food Trucks on a few weekends throughout the season.
ScoutWonderful facility! Pool, pool table, games for kids and adults. The grounds are beautiful and the staff is super friendly and helpful! Oh and in the laundry room they even have a sink for washing dishes! Great for tent campers ar those with small units that don't have kitchens.
LegendOur pad was not level front to back so we had to adjust a little bit. The fire ring was nice but our picnic table was beat up. I went to move it and the seat pulled right off. We stayed on a Sunday night so it wasn’t packed. There are a ton of sites. Some had great shade and others didn’t have any at all. The bathrooms were flush toilets and they did have shower houses too. The camp store is really big and it’s right next to their pool. They have a dog park, place to dock your boat and a small beach. I would imagine this would be a pretty busy during the summer.
