We stayed in one of the group sites. It was great for our crew. It’s close to lots of fun things to do and we’ll stay here again. Gave 3 stars for:
- campsite wasn’t clean when we arrived. Garbage was left from previous campers.
- bathrooms weren’t clean. Only saw them get cleaned once the whole 4 days we were there.
- flies are unbelievable! The are fly trap bags all over. We added more and that really helped.
- by one of the picnic tables there was a horrible smell. .. like a dead animal. We finally figured out it was one of the fly trap bags and moved it.
