Great campground. The swimming beach is a 5 minute drive, there is also a short hike to a (small) waterfall with an area for wading in the water. Friendly staff who even called to let me know the site was ready early.

Amazing top-notch disc golf course. Very nice bath/shower. Great boating lake with nice launch. Very spacious and shaded site, but not so level as some campgrounds.

This is fast becoming our favorite campground. It’s quiet, the people who go there are always polite and friendly, and the sites are well spaced and you have a sense of privacy. The recreation area is separate from the campground, so not a lot of through traffic. Every stay gets better!!!

This is one of our favorite parks to visit and the experience is always excellent. The staff there is very professional, pleasant and helpful. I cannot speak highly enough of their professionalism and helpfulness. I will definitely return.

Our Girl Scout Troops had a wonderful time as usual!! We had about 40 Girl Scouts and adults tent camping at Robbers Den and other than the crazy rain, it was a wonderful weekend. I highly suggest hiking the Bushwackers Falls trail. It is a nice short hike ending at a beautiful set of waterfalls. This is a great campground and we will definitely be back.
