My kids loved the open activities at Jellystone! They bounced on the jump pad, went down the new bounce slide, enjoyed the playground, and the pools. I do wish they had the heaters on in the pool, even though it was hot out, the pools were ice cold.
We were there during superhero weekend and they had activities every hour for the kids! The laundry room was nice, and the trading post had everything you may need from souvenirs to camping supplies.
Our site was long and narrow, easy to pull into for the week we were there.
The train near by is VERY loud though, it comes by morning noon and night.
Variety of sites; primitive, partial hookup, and full hookup.
Laundry consist of a couple of machines. Bathrooms could use some updating, and more consistent cleaning schedule.
Trails are short but pleasant views. Access to boat ramp and lock & dam which is a very popular fishing area.
Trade post runs all during normal business hours. Light snacks, and tackle for fishing.
Views of Coosa river and the mountains in distant is nice. Nights are peaceful here. Weekends are busy with weekenders and fishermen. Two playgrounds one at main park, one next to campsites.
Adorable little find! We’ve really enjoyed our stay here, as you can see our rig was in site #7 right at the docks. We put our kayaks in and paddled, we enjoyed sunsets by the lake in our hammocks, and we fished. Also it’s connected to the walking trail of Florala state park which has a swimming area and multiple playground stops. Pay the extra for waterfront sites, the sunset is worth it. Also sites are first come first serve.
There is laundry, bath house, playground, and more!
You can’t check in late because the road in is through a neighborhood and is windy, narrow and dark early because of the surrounding area.
Within hours of being on our site on the creek my daughter was stung by a hornet 3x, we had maintenance come out and take care of the nest that was under the deck at our site.
The campground is very large and does have fishing ponds, hiking trails, and a playground. The pools are closed for season, the activity room is closed due to Covid, and you can’t rent any equipment for putt putt golf, tennis, or basketball right now. However, you may bring your own.
The roads around the campground need repaved, and are very busy. We tried to walk and ride around with our children but constantly had to get off the road or be cautious as cars came around the turns in the campground.
We first had a 2 point site near the river, but when it rains the sites get flooded with runoff from the campground.
We moved to a full hookup on the Delaware section. Open, accommodating for our rig.
Laundry is coin or app operated. Putt putt is still open and fun, so is playground. Arcade was open. There is an indoor pool and spa (spa closed due to Covid).
WiFi is available at a cost.
They had Halloween ever at every weekend of October and we spent Halloween weekend here. The kids loved it!!
It gets very full on the weekends here.
We were in two different sites: the first was a two point site (water and electric) the road was dirt it seemed separate from the main drag of the campground, sites were wide but not very deep.
We then switched over to a full hookup site in the wooded area. Depending on your rig size you’re only available certain sites. They won’t give you a 50 amp site unless your 50 amp or 40’, they save them for larger campers.
The bathrooms were heated, and okay. I didn’t care for the shower curtain system it seems less private.
Laundry is quaint and coin operated.
Playground was open and great for the kids, so was mini golf.
10-15 from downtown Bar Harbor and the gorgeous Acadia NP. We vacationed here for my birthday. We had full hookups with free WiFi and cable. The kids loved playing on the playground and going down to the water at low tide. There is a kayak launch as well, and pool, but both were closed since we came in at the end of season. Everyone was nice and we had an amazing time.
Tip: Grab groceries in Ellsworth if you want to save $.
We came in at end of season, so pretty much everything seems closed. But, it’s a beautiful campground and the part of PA is great too.
My biggest complaint is the narrow roads in the campground. The location is great, and the campground does seem to have quite a bit to offer. The staff was very friendly. Our visit was short, we were just passing through, but will consider this campground again if we’re ever in the area again.
We came in in October, the foliage is beautiful on the “wooded” sites. There are new sites with gravel and no trees as well, we had our choice. The wooded sites are pull through and back in, depending on the row. There are cabins and rentals as well. Fire pits and charcoals grills at all wooded sites. Family friendly facility with a playground. Lounge closed for Covid, pool closed for season. Events and activities are run by management. Great location for beach and stores.
The hosts, who just recently bought this campground are very kind and accommodating. It will eventually be a KOA.
We came in the fall, and the foliage was beautiful. There are many little areas to walk and explore in the campground.
We have a TT and our campsite had wifi, a fire ring, and full hookups. We have kids so we opted for a site close enough to watch them play on the playground.
The pull-through sites are long and have trees in between and around so still gives a feeling of privacy.
I will say the heated pool was a big plus! The river is beautiful and serene. This campground did have a newer playground which my kids loved, as well. We didn’t have a site that over looked the river but we’re able to access it through the “beach area.” Most of the campers in the campground seem to be weekend warriors who leave their campers on premises to enjoy them on the weekends.
As part of the Thousand Trails group, this campground has many amenities. It offers a pool, playground, and activities that include bocce ball, shuffleboard, and horseshoes. We loved our full hookup site minus the neighbors’ weekend ragers. (At least they turned off the music at quiet hours).
The creek that runs by the campground is gorgeous, and my kids had fun finding Crayfish.
The nearby towns are adorable and offer shopping, hiking, farms, and more.
Free wifi and cable! The beautiful setting around is nicely within the woods. There is also a playground and the rates are hard to beat.
The campground is on 16 acres, and if you'd like you may hike around, there is a beautiful creek.
Nice pads, even with rain none were flooded. The wooded area makes you feel a little more secluded from any neighbors. The state park has two playgrounds that are both open and trails to hike. I LOVE the commercial-sized washing sink for your dishes, since you don't have full hookups its a BIG deal. The bathrooms could use some updating, and the showers actual doors instead of double curtains. There's a nearby Arboretoreum as well. I think my only problem is that parts of this state park are not on adjoined property and you do have to drive to them.
This was the first RV campground we stayed at when we became Full time. We stayed an entire month and LOVED it. *This review is prior to COVID so there may be changes since.
Pros
Super family-friendly! This used to be a KOA but now is privately owned and operated. You're only a 10-15 min drive to the closest beaches (further for the lighthouse and Ponce Inlet). It had a great pool, a playground, and a dog run. Great rates for monthly and seasonal. The location is close to grocers, shops, beaches, and more. People are kind in the camp store, and our kids were very welcomed. Also, there was cable, which is a fun plus for rainy days. Trash pickup service and Community events!
Cons:
We luckily didn't have anyone besides us for the month, but the sites are rather tight and not all have shade. Prices do fluctuate because of high volume season (snowbirds).
Pros:
Manicured landscape, close proximity to grocers, stores, and not far (15min) to nearest beaches. Beautiful community area includes pool, fire pit, gas grill, tables, & cornholes. Nice laundry facility.
Cons:
Small campground, gravel sites reserved for travelers (short term stays).
However, this road that we were on does flood during rain, as you see in pictures. Some long term residents complain about children playing in the road. The gym was closed due to COVID.
Pros:
Beautifully landscaped, and clean. The dog run was great for my dog as well. The gym was open for use and sanitized, as well as the pool.
Cons:
Bad neighborhood, they even tell you there's been theft and make sure to lock up your bikes. Pull through sites lack privacy and are tight.
Other than that, you're within driving distance to some of the most beautiful towns and beaches.
We chose this campground based on proximity to work. This campground was priced fairly, however, it does come with its downfalls.
PROS
Let me start with the positive, we were 1 of 3 campers in this loop during our week-long stay. This made it peaceful and quiet.
CONS
It's close to a Naval base, and therefore you constantly hear airplanes, and helicopters at all times.
Other than the daily bathroom cleaning, this campground lacks maintenance on sites and walkways. They are both overgrown.
Playground, fishing, archery all seem blocked off at this time.
Trails seem open but are across and through hunting areas. They are also muddy from the rain. There is even standing water around our site which brings us to…the MOSQUITOS! We tried fans, tiki torches, and many deet free or light deet products before having to buy 100% deet so we could be outside. These things are awful!
Nice campground well-kept pool, and laundry facility. The playground closed due to COVID but has a dog park and fishing ponds with bass. The biggest downfall to this facility is that the nice campsites are only reserved for seasonal or year-round campers. Anyone there for days - weeks stay get a full-sun site which some can be pretty small ours was a decent size. It's also overrun by feral cats so if you're allergic, bring meds. They offer cable, and you can pay for WiFi.
