"We had a fun time but we were told they would have a hot tub and a pool available when we came and that didn't happen as far as the hot tub goes. The hot tub was shut down because the ph levels were not being maintained and they were not safe. There was other areas shut down because they weren't safe and needed maintenance. The pool and other areas also look in need of maintenance and updating. I feel like I should have gotten a discount for not being able to use the hot tub which was part of what we paid for and was told over the phone would be available. We wanted to go see what it was like "

"Our second visit here. I would love to spend more time in the park, but travels were important. Facilities and grounds are immaculate, and the staff is premium. The maintenance supervisor helped us solve an RV problem that would have significantly delayed our trip. Recommend this park for all families!"

"Nice park, needs a lot more maintenance and the bathrooms really need a good cleaning. Just be aware that people speed through the park constantly. The pickle ball courts are pretty good but covered with little pine cones, as is the mini golf course. My husband said the water in the men’s bathroom and family bathroom doesn’t get hot, just lukewarm."
