Very chill spot
We stayed here for 2 months during the holiday season and we really enjoyed our stay here! Hot tubs great, large dog park, love the old school play ground our spot was right on the river. Every single one of the staff members have been so nice and kind. We've become friends with a few and have to say we will miss this place when we hit the road again. (That's how u know its a good campsite haha) They do quite a few activities at the club house to bring community together, would definitely recommend this lovely campground

Nice Campground
Very clean and great staff.
My complaints, 1. Road noise, 2. Lack of planned activities to engage the community, 3. Pool isn’t heated, and 4. Fitness room is mediocre but ok.
With that, I would still stay again, just shorter span.

Nice ACOE Campground
Nice campground with water each site and electric. Restrooms which are very dated but staff does their best. Many of the facilities could use updating. Sites are nicely spaced apart. Near city life. Places to walk. Lots of deer.
Randal L.ScoutRedbud Ranch RV Resort
Nice but Trains
It's a very nice rv park overall. It is a bit more expensive, especially with the nearby train tracks. I'm a heavy sleeper but with close by road crossings, the horns are loud and frequent throughout the night
