The host was great. The campground was great. The hosts abusive drunk husband made the week miserable and scary

A beautiful and pleasant campground. The only negative thing is that several of the campsites are not as long as described on the website.

Good but the campground did not have water when we arrived. Water was turned at the end of our stay but it was not drinkable.

The camp host Bruce was the best! Everything was so clean, and he was so friendly and welcoming. We had water the entire time, running toilets, it was great!
The negatives were about the camp site we were in which was Number 12.
1. There was no where to put a tent as all the spots had fallen trees in them- like huge trunks so there was no way to move them. The tiny spot that was available was so lumpy with uneven ground and rocks. We we ended up putting our tent on the gravel- which made it hard to sleep.
2. The next was the amount of stinging nettle In the site - that was a huge problem. We were limited in where we even sat - couldn’t use the table because of how much nettle was around it, and used the fire pit one after we got a shovel and cleared the nettle out around it.
3. The fire pit. New gravel had been placed around it, but it wasn’t leveled at all- it made sitting by the fire dangerous, especially for the kids because the chairs were lopsided due to the uneven ground around it.
All in all- the camp host was nice and the running water was great, but the site and the maintenance of the site were terrible.

The campsite we stayed in wasn’t very good for tent camping (which we did). There wasn’t level ground and there were stinging nettle plants all over. It would be nice if each campsite had a couple cleared and level areas for tents.
Other than that, it is a nice campground. Quiet. Paved roads make it nice to keep the dust down.

The reservation tag was posted correctly on post, the campground host was amiable yet not too chatty/annoying, bathroom was kept cleaned and stocked.
only bad thing...too many generators!

The campground was very nice but the camp hosts were ignorant and very hard to work with.
