The host was very knowledgeable about the sites and even told us where to expect the sun rises/sets.

What a beautiful, peaceful and well-constructed campground! It was a wonderful surprise to find it not far from the highway as we passed through the area. We may drive back from Florida just to stay longer!

We checked in on 6/15. We had site 15. There were two big mud holes at the front of the site. I was told twice that gravel would be brought in and cover the mud and water. We left on 6/20, still no gravel. We had rain during the week , our site was under water several times. Water standing in the mud holes. This was our first experience at this campground, very dissatisfied.
