What a beautiful find! We booked this as it was close to the Trace Parkway and within our daily driving range. We arrived late but had two very helpful campers help us get settled into our spot. Some of the sites are oriented a bit strangely (we were in #18 and had to back in at an angle parallel to the street but very roomy) but all are very spacious and ours had an amazing lake view. Very well maintained and would love to go there again if ever in the area. Highly recommended.

We have been camping in our 36' fifth wheel for 8 years and this park is by far the most beautiful of all the parks we have been to (and we've camped in all the 48 continental states). Not only was it beautiful and quiet, Jerry, the host, was incredibly helpful and friendly and the trails well kept and wonderful. The countryside is also magnificent.

Our camping space had plenty of room. We liked the fire pit with the cooking grate over it as well as the additional grill on a post. One suggestion, if it is possible, firewood that could be purchased in camp would be nice. We will definitely try to stay again!

Beautiful place to camp. We were there during the week and not many others there, so it was very peaceful. The grounds are kept beautifully and everything was clean. Wish we could have stayed longer!

The views and trails were gorgeous. The sites are well spaced and easy to access. The only negative points I can give are the 2 week stay limit per 30 days, and that there are no sites with waste dumping (you must disconnecting use dump station at site entrance then re-setup.

It was quite and peaceful. The grounds were very well kept. The cleanest camping grounds I have ever been to. The bath house needed more than one shower but we managed. We had a great time. We will definitely come back.
