We love Holly Bay but one of the American Leisure host had several dogs at their site that barked all day long. This is very disturbing since you come here to enjoy nature and the friendly campers sharing the experience with you.

Our stay was excellent!! We were comfortable, quiet , took walks, enjoyed the Ladies at front office building. Over all, it was the best location so far this year.

The camp site was clean and well maintained as were the shower houses. We loved the fact that most other camp sites were not in clear, the surrounding trees made is feel like we really were in the woods. The hiking trails were extraordinary, for all level of hikers. We will definitely be back, hopefully this month! Thank you for a wonderful adventure and wonderful staff!

Our sites were clean and well suited for great camping. We had a view of the lake which we appreciated.

Could have done without the karaoke night at the gathering area... Being too loud disturbed what is usually a quiet campfire.

Enjoyed the camping site. Even if it did ran off and on my dog and I still walked/hiked around the area.
