Not what we were hoping for

I was going to leave a bad review, but that's not really fair. I'm sure this place is pretty great on the weekends and we weren't here for a long time, just here for a good time.

In short, 90% of the place is filled with seasonally permanent campers. There's a small section where they cater to short-timers. The place has mostly been a ghost town all week (Sunday through Wednesday), but it's full of people's rigs. I think a lot of folks come out from Cleveland and spend the weekend here.

The playground was good for the kids. The grounds are well maintained. There's a good-sized fishing pond and a separate swimming pond. They have an arcade here that looks fine, but it was locked up the entire time we were here. That's probably a good thing; I'm sure it saved us some jing.

I'm not sure what's up with the water, but it smells like metal and you're probably better off bringing your own drinking water. The showers were kind of gross, but not the worst. My drain didn't seem to work at all and the entire shower stall flooded.  I had to dry off and get dressed in the main bathroom area, so I guess I was glad it was a ghost town that day.

I want to complain about not having sewer hookups and laundry, but that's not fair. Their website is accurate. It seems there are multiple "Willow lake park" results that come up and I might have thought I booked a different one when we planned out this 3-month trip. That's fine; I'll do the laundry at the next one!

The sites themselves are fine. Nice and level with a firepit.
