Our family was there for 2 weeks and it was never mowed. We had to get a weed eater and clean around our campsite in fear of snakes or other critters in the tall grass. The path the beach was not mowed and was knee high. The camp attendants were very rude and were curt when we told them there was no toilet paper in the restrooms. There were broken shower heads in the showers that were not repaired from last year when we camped there. Not a pleasant stay at all. Probably will not return until changes are made.

First the campsite A20 was littered Horribly, cigarette butts, trash, melted plastic, soda cans in the fire pit I literally took a garbage bag and cleaned out the fire pit before we could use it. And as I walked around, I realize it wasn’t just our site. It was over 80% of the sites with the fire pits full of trash. The grass on and around our Very tall. The entire campground was very unkept, From the dumpsters to the restrooms, we’ve been camping here since the early 2000s and we’re very Disappointed to see how rundown it’s getting.

When we started camping 10 years ago this campground was well maintained. The last 2 years it has been less than appealing. They do not mow very often. There are weeds & knee high. When you have toddlers and the grass is too high for them to play outside it is very disappointing. We have a boat at the narrows marina, but have no desire to camp at the Narrows with the shape it is in. You would think with the rate increase & volunteers at most campground they could at least get the grass mowed. We took a weed eater with us to clear off our site

When we go to the Narrows it is always a very relaxing trip. The attendants are always very nice and helpful. Would love to see it stay open longer during the season!!!!

Grass hadn’t been mowed and limbs from where water had been up was everywhere. Surely with the price of campsites going up every year landscaping could be taken care of better. It could be such a pretty park.
