Great campground, level sites, clean, well maintained and the camp host was friendly and welcoming. He did rounds several times a day and talked with folks. I’ve stayed at a lot of COEs and this was the first time I’ve seen a camp host be a camp host. Best park!

Wife fell at the sight because of a big drop off at the pad. She broke both bones in her lower leg and her ankle. She can't do anything for 8 Weeks

This is one of our favorites. Most sites are fairly level although a few have somewhat steep slopes to them. Bath houses and toilets are clean. Decent cell service with good signal on our T-Mobil phones and wifi

Overall experience was good but the loop was full of people that had big dogs that barked a lot, and most owners didn't attempt to stop them. Disappointing.

I was very disappointed in the camping pads at Gun creek. They have nice asphalt to park the camper on, then the entire area around the picnic table is lime. Since it was raining the day we got, it was a complete mess. Then the next day it dried up nice which made it even more of a mess tracking in and out of the camper. The roads are narrow and tight pulling a camper around the entire campground. Not impressed!!
