My little girls first time camping and she enjoyed it sooooo much. The staff were super friendly, the lady who works here and only lives 10 minutes away but stays on the camp was out of this world amazing!!! She catered for my little girls allergies and went above and beyond what I would ever expect. The camp was super clean and tidy. To other reviews I do agree that some equipment is a little older and slightly run down but it is all functional and has no negative effects on the fun you can have as a family!! Everything is inclusive so yes things are a little older but you are paying $40 for a night and you don’t have to pay for the facilities, in comparison to great Wolf lodge with the amenities it is $300 a night cheaper. I will definitely return it was great fun! Set your expectations reasonable it is superior value!

Above and beyond. This was our first time here, but won’t be our last. The staff was incredibly attentive, friendly, and helpful. While although the office was closed due to COVID, they have text direct to staff and everything we needed was delivered within minutes to our site and simply charged to the card on file. Being first time campers with small children we thought we were prepared, and were wrong! The staff helped get our fire started, and going, and even lent some of their personal equipment for breakfast. Tons of activities for the family, clean restrooms, and well maintained throughout. Thank you so much for the great memories!

This is a VERY NICE KOA! It's laid out really great with lots of pull through sites. Super clean with lots of kid stuff for the little ones.

Some of the amenities can use an upgrade or repair (jump pillow, miniature golf) but they still had plenty of other things to do and fun activities for the kids. We all really enjoyed the "all you can eat" ice cream social. The kids loved the scavenger hunt and the nighttime flashlight candy hunt. We had one of the narrow sites but it was bigger than we'd expected and we were to set up everything very comfortably. The main reason for the 5 stars though is because of how friendly, attentive, and helpful the staff was. Just a great bunch of people who looked like they really liked their jobs. It was our first time here and we'll definitely be back!
