Friendly and Cleean

Extremely friendly staff. Bathrooms were a little dated, but clean and great hot water. Full hookups and some grassy sites without sewer with more of a camping park feel. I preferred and stayed at the later. Full hookup sites were mostly gravel. Dump station is a short walk from sewerless sites, which is great if using portable waste tank. Lots of picturesque farmland around. Kids will love to see the cows and some horses near roadside as you drive. It takes 15-20 minutes to get anywhere though. That can be a pro or con depending on your preference. Sorry, no pics of the campground, but I found the nearby cows amusing :).

Quiet campground

It is a small quiet campground. If you are looking to relax this would be the place to go. They have activities throughout the weekend and a pool to cool off in.
