Went there this weekend of Sept 20 to 22 2019 for 2 nites. The site has very very mature tree's, in fact there is shade on almost all of the sites. What I find annoying where the oak tree's dropping the acorns and hitting the roof of the camper in the middle of the nite.. but hey, that's nature letting you know she's still there..
Pro's:
fairly big, some what rustic if that's your taste. The owners are friendly and welcoming. Even the helpers where the same. for 10$ they gave enough wood for 2 nites, and he even gave us dry starter wood. For those complaining about the wood and delivery, maybe it was during hi season.. we where there during low season. The site was not too far from Hwy 40. The bathrooms and showers where extremely clean for the age. The park was nice for the kids, and the small little farm was fun for the kids as well. There's a dwarf horse they let roam freely, very gentle.
Con's
camp site needs a bit of TLC, toilets and showers need a reno. I found there was a bit of sulfer smell from their water, but very little, we still drank bottled water. We found the camp to be some what tight when manouvering through the site, I can't imagine backing in when the park is at full capacity. We had some problems flushing our tanks at departure, seems their tanks maybe full from the season. Because of low season, the pools where closed, the restraunt was closed, etc.. the site was running at bare minimum..
1 thing that bothered me the most was when I asked if there is reception at night, and was told they are open till 9pm, when we arrived at 730pm, the main office was closed. I'm glad we where able to find the owner from the seasonal's partying near by.
In all, its a nice site, close to home, I would go back for short weekends and at low season. Not sure how tenting would be like.
This is a family run campsite. They are so warm and friendly and very family oriented. Had a great stay!!
My stay was amazing. The owner was great for tuning our location for our situation so that we could stay up later without disturbing others.
The location is great, with the perfect mix of trees and open areas to make sure your tent doens't cook constantly.
There isn't an insane amount of mosquitoes, which for me is big. When I was there, I barely got bit or thought about their presence.
The group site is amazing.
The woods aren't overrun with poison Ivy so you felt a little more comfortable walking around.
We used to go to sandbanks but this is so much better. There's actual bathrooms with sinks instead of latrines, the owners are kind and so are the people staying. Great sense of community. The value for wood is great as well. We lasted 2 days (morning and night fires) on 25$ worth of wood.
Lots of racoons however, and it ended up waking up during the night my partner as we were very close to a wooded area. If you cover your cooler and put your garbage away there's no issues.
Great place. Loved it. Could not recommend more.
My family and I camped here and were blown away by the friendliness/hospitality. Very accomodating, family friendly and you can tell that the owners take pride in the service they provide. Very clean compared to most campgrounds we've been to. Another added bonus was that the owner is bilingual and spoke great English. My wife and I both agreed that we would go back again.
