Beautiful views, super clean, wonderful staff. The new owners cleaned this place up right. If you are looking at old reviews, don't!

Very enjoyable stay

We stayed here in a Travel Trailer.

I'm here as we speak. I paid for two nights but I strongly regret it. It looks a little rundown, whatever. I don't care too much about the looks of the place as long as it's functional and decently priced. This place is not either. $35 a night got us a TINY spot, bad wifi that couldn't keep a solid connection if that were it's only job, and showers worse than jail. Yes, I've been once, and I'd rather go back and shower in that jail than try to shower here again. I'm not sure if it's a joke that they have all metal showers with no lighting over them, or the fact that the shower heads are more useful for misting the atmosphere. They keep the bathroom doors open so it's not private whatsoever - while I was showering another camper was pooping and her boyfriend decided to stand at the bathroom door and serenade her. What the f? I'm not staying my second night, though I highly doubt that they'll give me my refund.

We stayed here in a Class C Motorhome.

Old dirty and run down - staff unhelpful

This use to be a KOA campground, but has not been well maintained. Bathrooms are dirty, laundry facilities are old, campground in general is run down. Dirt tracks to patchy dirt/gravel sites, with grass unkept and weeds all around.

Staff just didn't seem to care about their customers or the upkeep of the campground. I would not recommend staying here.
