Steady decline in quality of this campground since Covid . Was a very nice campground for years for our family. No maintenance. Every year gets more noticeable.

The campsites exhibit inconsistencies in leveling, with potential side-to-side deviations of 3-5 inches. Furthermore, some sites present challenges due to the placement of electrical boxes, potentially obstructing slideout functionality. The grounds often lack meticulous maintenance.

The children's playground is well-maintained. However, on-site ice and firewood sales are no longer available.

The nightly rate of $34 appears to be disproportionate to the current amenities. Additionally, the elimination of paid camp attendants raises concerns.

Improvements are recommended.
