The staff at R Shaffer Heard was the friendliest staff I have ever met. They were just Great. There is one place on West Point I rather not go camping due to the rude staff. Amitiy is the worst of campgrounds on West Point. I do believe that whoever hires personal like that should be replaced then the staff.
Thank You for a Great experience at R. Shaffer Heard.

The site was on the water front, I was just looking for a spot where I stayed and wished I had full hookups.

The gate staff is very friendly and helpful. First time at this particular site, 86. Close to shore, lots of room and level. Using a tv antenna we were able to watch 4 channels. Also had phone service. The view of the lake and sunset was wonderful. Has a nice sandy beach with a gentle walk out which worked really good for us as seniors. Great lake and campground.

This site has issues with ants. We did all the preventative stuff, but they still found their way into our camper. Other than that is was a GREAT experience!!!

fix the bathrooms ,update them from the 70s ..... one bathroom by site 44 the toilet stays plugged almost every trip and i been going there for several years and it still has the same problem on this last trip , then the bathhouse at site 50 the toilet is broken loose from the floor , was reported for days before we arrived and when flushed , floods the floor so its not very safe considering our times these days. then they just cut the water off and not tell anyone , so our last trip was not very great , we go back aug 2nd and im betting the toilet in the bathouse still have not been repaired when it was reported again while we were there. bathrooms are important to be clean and safe , then i watched your cleaning crew sleeping in the truck over a hour last trip and once again, this is not new because we have seen and reported it before also over the years , but no time for repairs.. campground is great , but upkeep is not being done , grass is high , dead tree limbs hanging over multi thousand dollar rvs , some work needs to be done and updated , it has not changed in over 10 years.
