Hosts Dave & Deb were excellent. Andrew should NOT be hosting. Very unfriendly and rude at times. Even saw him being rude with a fisherman in front of his young son. Please do not let him come back here!

A beautiful and quiet RV campground. Easy back in access and level pads. Clean bathrooms and showers. Gorgeous sunsets and moonrises. Flocks of egrets walking the grounds to entertain you. We will return.

We camped on site#7 @ WP FRANKLIN. We had to pull our shades at night due to the extremely bright lights on the front of the bath house. They Stay on day and night. They need to be turned toward the bathhouse and not shining out in the campground. 2nd problem are the RATS around sites 6-7-8. Our ROOF AC stopped working and after taking off the SHROUD I found an 8" rat jammed between the cage fan and the frame. We've talked with other people that have camped on these sites and they have also complained about the RATS. DON'T STAY ON THESE SITES.....rats are everywhere. 3rd....the HOOLIGAN BOATERS that come in on the weekends are simply HOOLIGAN TRASH. LOUD OBNOXIOUS TRASH....speeding as the leave, throwing trash out their windows. Most are Hispanic trash....no regard for laws or this country. Why this is allowed goes beyond belief. DISGUSTING TRASH PEOPLE.....NUFF SAID
