We still like the place, but the pools are dirty, arcade is boring, takes too long to get ice cream after ordered, and overall upkeep sees to continue to fall behind

Our cabin was not fully clean upon arrival. There were multiple toys and fireworks in the cabin. Everyone walks through your campsite without any consideration to the campers. The pool was not clean and had a lot of floaters. It was nauseating even being in it. We enjoyed candy bar bingo, making smores and memories. We played in the arcade, the ice cream shop is great. At night is the worst. There’s sooo many kids on bikes or golf carts or people walking being loud and obnoxious. Two sites down kept screaming at 12am. It was hard to enjoy with that happening.

The staff here makes it above and beyond. They are so patient with the kids. There were many activities everyday, they find ways to make it fun. There were many bear visits and attention to detail. The laser tag was well worth the $15 per person... what an awesome experience! We were the only ones that signed up for the day and they still were happy to set up the game for us. They are also very prompt about picking up trash at the site and keeping things around the campground clean and nice. We have been going here for the last 6 years, it remains the kids favorite. From 9am to 10 pm there is plenty to do. We will be back!
