Big Pines RV Park

When we arrived, it was a gloomy evening at Big Pines, with POURING rain.
But as we pulled into the Park, Jared the Manager, met us. We didn't even have us get out of the truck! Immediately, we felt like Kinfolk returning home, after a long absence!
Being September of the 2019 camping season, most sites were open. With the pouring rain, Jared encouraged us to drive through the grounds, look the sites over, and if we saw an easier site to maneuver into, we were welcome. Then he led us on foot, through the huge pines of the rain soaked grounds, making sure we got properly parked. We wouldn't have been able to manage alone, in such rain.
Jared's kind and thoughtful hospitality, MADE our first night! He waited once we parked, making sure we didn't have any questions before sloshing off, (soaked to the bone), he never lost his smile, as he looked back, and waved.
The grounds are beautiful, especially in Fall! The private Bath Houses are awesome and spacious.
Even with pouring rain, many sites have been upgraded to improve parking. It's a scenic park, in a convenient location. We were greeted by friendly campers, AND it was QUIET. We watched deer wondering through, several evenings. The laundry & game Room are also nice.
We're looking forward to the 2020 Camping Season at Big Pines!
Thank you for the genuine hospitality!

Overall we enjoyed our stay for a week/over July 4th. There is plenty of space in between sites.
Wifi worked great.
Super clean facilities.
It seems that a large portion of the park is seasonal guests.
Nicest park in the surrounding area.
Manager was very nice.
Only Con: We have a 40 ft FW- they really need to escort the large rigs to their sites because their map is not geometrically correct plus there are lots of trees to maneuver thru with tight turns.

First impression when we drove up was it was very pretty and peaceful. But it was a different check in process. The lady was sitting on the deck outside the office and didn't ask or name but said what site we were in. She took us to the site and helped us back in. I asked if I needed to go to the office for any information etc. She said no and drove off. It is my fault for not insisting that we go to the office. We were given no wifi code, we had no idea where bathrooms and showers were, no idea where trash went, nothing. It appeared that almost all of the RVs were either permanent or seasonal. We figured since we were one night it wasn't important for them to make sure we had all the information needed. That was definitely a first for us. We had to go walk around to figure things out. Our site was right in the middle of a group that st right outside our trailer and loudly carried on conversations until after 11 pm. There are several trailers that had for sale signs on them. Had we known that everyone was seasonal, we would have stayed elsewhere.

This place is absolutely fantastic. If no one told you you were right in the center of town, you'd never know it. There is lots of space between campers and camp spaces. The camp hosts are very helpful and nice. The whole place is very serene and the facilities are fantastic. We will definitely be back. We are writing this review as we sit in front of our campfire for our last night here.

The sites are well maintained and spacious. The bathroom/ showers are clean and individual. Great play area, walking path to a small river and fish cleaning area. We saw several deer walking in the Campground.
