Markham Springs

Really nice and quiet.

Years ago, this park was a GEM!!!! No longer. It's very run down and in need of a lot of help! No dump station anymore???? The beautiful spring pond that used to fuel the paddle wheel has a break in the dam , some of the electric sites are in disrepair. So sad because this was once a GEM. The river loop sites are in much
need of care.

Enjoyed every minute, swimming, biking, hiking. Not crowded so excellent if you are doing the social distancing.

The Camp Hostess was very friendly and helpful. Other guest were friendly and quite. The double site was large and shaded. My only complaint was that the fire pit grate was so high that even in the lowest position, it was hard to get enough coals to cook.

We enjoyed our time there, mostly because of the friends we camped with. We stayed at a group site. We shared a utility post for electric. We wanted to have our awnings facing each other and it was a little difficult setting up. There was a lot of grassy area where the kids could run around, but there were a lot of gopher holes. Some of them were large and deep. I fell down when my foot went in one of the holes. We noticed that the other camping looks were not maintained at all. Sites were overgrown and looked abandoned. It was a shame because it is a beautiful park. And you could see how nice those camping areas could be.
