Great campground for family. All sites have electric and water. Some have sewer. Pump out service available if needed. Grounds are very well maintained. Bathrooms and shower are always clean. Kid and dog friendly. Beautiful sites on the river. I stayed there 3 weeks and loved every minute. Hopefully I can do it again next year.

Wonderful family campground! This was our first time at Hidden Acres. We had a site right on the river which was beautiful. The staff was very friendly. The grounds, bathrooms and showers were spotless. Lots of activities. Just a great place! We will definitely be back!

Awesome location for families. This was our second time out in our travel trailer and we were told we scored the best site in the campground...after seeing it in person, we agreed!! Awesome views of the river, ability to jump in/tube/fish just steps from our site was an excellent perk! Kids also enjoyed the pool and some of the games (basketball, volleyball, table games, etc). We also did a few loops around the campground on our bikes...with it also being quiet, it gave our youngest who's on the spectrum the opportunity to learn how to ride a two wheeler with pedals on his own. We enjoyed the peacocks and goats for a break of the campground feel...the peacocks randomly made their presence a few times to our site aswell which was a great to see. The staff were welcoming and attentive when we arrived/stopped in afterwards to check out the office. We definitely would like to make Hidden Acres a yearly trip for us!

We spent a week at Hidden Acres for our family vacation from Pennsylvania and it was wonderful!! Staff was so kind and friendly. We had a beautiful site on the river. The bathrooms were all conveniently located and very clean. We spent most of our time in Mystic which was a nice 30 minute drive. We did not participate in the activities or swim in the pool but there seemed like a lot to do. Even when it was full it was still always quiet and peaceful. This was by far our favorite campground that we have ever been too.

Where do I even begin?? This was my first experience at hidden acres, but definitely not my first camping experience! I have to say that this has been one of the most enjoyable camping experiences we have had to date! Our group had such an incredible time, and there were so many different activities for us to participate in together for Mother’s Day. The cabins were more than I ever could have expected-were very clean, and made camping such a breeze! I truly felt spoiled rotten! The view by the river could not be beat. It was simply perfection. There were goats for the kids to feed and visit with and the peacocks are EVERYWHERE. The kids were fascinated by them, and they enjoyed hunting for feathers around the campground. It was their favorite part! The staff was so kind and inviting and they truly make you feel like family upon arrival. 20/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ HIGHLY RECOMMEND for camping with kiddos!
