Large, mostly private sites. Beautiful wooded, shaded campground with park access to a large lake. Great campground hosts. Loved my visit.

Beautiful well kept campground. Water level was high and beach was closed. Check ahead if that is your reason to go. Trails are well maintained. Overall an excellent place to get away.

The staff were very rude. Nit picked and complained about EVERY thing, except the very thing they should have been worried about: loud music way late into the night.
Didn’t honor my America the beautiful pass for discounted camping like they used to.
Just not very friendly, made our stay not very good. We left early. Won’t be back there

We had a nice stay at Hardin Ridge. It was not very crowded in the loop we were in. The bathrooms and showers were clean and kept up. The site we were at was a good size. Our site didn't have a tall pole to hang things on like the sites nearby did. It would have been nice to have one to put the lantern, a bag of water...

Holland 209 is a great site for a large family gathering! Facilities are super clean and very close. There isn't any water on this site, but the facilities right next door have a place where you can fill up buckets.
