My stay at Native Falls Campground far exceeded my expectations. It’s family friendly, pet friendly, very clean, and the staff are welcoming and friendly. The complimentary wine for Valentines Day was a thoughtful touch that my wife and I truly appreciated. There are plenty of activities on-site, including a pickle ball court, pool table, walking trails, basketball, kayaking, and even a coffee/cocktail cart that serves a variety of delicious beverages. I would highly recommend this campground to anyone who’s looking for a peaceful camping/cabin experience in a serene environment.

My family and I tent camped here this past weekend and had the worst (nonexistent) management experience. Their EMPLOYEES hosted a Halloween party in the cabin close to my tent site that continued to play loud music and people yelling till 4 in the morning! Mind you the camp rules state quiet starts at 10 pm. At 1 am my husband went to the cabin to ask them to quiet down and someone tried to get PHYSICALLY VIOLENT with him. Then I proceeded to call the “after hours/emergency” phone number 10 times to no answer. Then at 3am I had to go ask again for the party to be quiet. My husband, my two young daughters and I didn’t sleep at all that night. I then sent a email hoping to get a response. The most upsetting part was that I never received a call back, not a follow up email, nothing. For $80 a night I expected so much more.
Also I hope you don’t have to do laundry because the office won’t give you change for your dollars because she couldn’t be bothered to open a roll of quarters.
I’m giving 2 stars because the gentleman who runs maintenance during the day was very sweet and the older lady who stays on site was also very nice.

We recently stayed here for the first time, and unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience.
When we arrived, Ginger and Matt gave us a great first impression. Unfortunately, things went downhill from there. We had booked a specific site for privacy and relaxation, but due to construction, we were persuaded to switch to another spot. The site we were moved to was extremely tight, with campsites and cabins packed close together. We were told no one would be on either side of us, but by the first night one side was filled, and by the second night, both sides were occupied.
The worst part was that on the second day, the construction we were supposedly avoiding was moved directly behind the site they convinced us to take. For three days, we had to endure constant loud noise, dust, and dirt. Any hope of a peaceful getaway was gone.
On top of that, the policies felt rigid and the customer service (outside of Ginger and Matt) was unwelcoming. On our third day, a friend came to visit and sit with us for just one hour, no use of amenities at all, and we were charged $25. Considering the disruption from construction, waiving that fee would have been a reasonable gesture, but instead we were met with a curt response from staff saying, "It doesn't matter, those are the policies."
We also couldn't get a late checkout, which would have been understandable if the campground was full. But the very site we had originally booked sat empty, meaning we could have stayed there without issue. And to top it all off, on our last morning, as we tried to enjoy a quiet cup of coffee at 7:45 AM, a maintenance worker came through with a loud leaf blower and dust was blown into our campsite.
Yes, the campground's location is beautiful, but that's the only positive. Between the construction noise, lack of privacy, poor communication, and unaccommodating staff, we felt our hard earned time off from work was wasted. For the price, this place is simply not worth it. We will never return and strongly recommend others look elsewhere. The nearby KOA that we usually stay at offers far better amenities and customer care.

We had a great time at Native Falls. We camp every month all year long and my 12 year old son commented that Native Falls was the best managed campground we have been to. It was clean, the employees are friendly, the fishing was great, the swimming was fun, the property is really cool. Overall we had an excellent experience and we will definitely return for more fun.

This is a fantastic spot for a weekend getaway! The lake is beautiful and perfect for swimming, kayaking, and fishing. The campground itself is well-maintained, with clean restrooms and spacious campsites. The staff is friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with any needs.
Pros:
- Stunning lake views
- Great for water activities
- Clean facilities
- Friendly staff
- Well-maintained grounds
Cons:
- Can get crowded on weekends
- Some campsites are a bit close together
Overall, I highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy a relaxing and fun camping experience by the lake. We'll definitely be back!
