Nice and Easy First Trip

This was our first real trip since owning our travel trailer and this campground was a nice and easy first go. It was clean and easy to navigate. Site 80 was pretty flat and easy to get level with plenty of room. Site is right on the main road but that surprisingly didn’t bother us. Not on the water but water views. Pretty Georgia pines and mixed hardwoods provided great shade throughout the day.

We didn’t use the bathhouses but did peek inside the one on our loop and it was clean. The beach looked nice and was close to our site but got crowded on Saturday.

The dump station and dumpster isn’t the most convenient to get to when leaving but it was as clean as a dump station can be.

Our only real complaint was the ants. My lord were they prevalent. Woke up the first morning and found a line of ants up every stabilizer and the tongue jack. Remember, this was our first trip in a brand new TT so we didn’t have any open food or trash anywhere. My only guess is they were getting water. Went to the local Home Depot and got spray and that slowed them down but effectively trapped the ones already there and they began to come inside at that point. They were not fire ants so we were not getting bit but still very unpleasant. To be fair, my wife said at the front gate there was a sign advising to spray for ants, I just missed it.

Overall we were happy with the site and the campground. I’m sure we will visit again considering it’s a 10 minute drive from the house.
