There were bad storms and we lost power and the bathrooms were not cleaned the whole week we were there. There were used tampons and pads on the floor! This was disgusting!!! I won't use this camp grounds again and I've been here for years..

Found the on-site hosts were very proficient doing their jobs. Even during the storm, they were very helpful making sure everyone was safe and everything was clean afterwards. The bathrooms and showers were cleaned daily (saw him checking them more than once a day even) and never had that campground toilet smell with bugs and spider webs in there. Never saw anything left behind that was “disgusting” after the gentleman cleaned them like said in Leota’s review. Not to say it couldn’t happen, but that doesn’t reflect on them how people are. But if that was the case I have no doubt it was cleaned up promptly. The host seem to be top notch and on top of getting things done.
The campground is shaded and lots of space between each spot. I definitely would recommend this place to stay. And will be back. Keep up the good work Crabtree!!
