Mohican Reservation Campgrounds & Canoeing

My family and I have camped here a few times. It is a beautiful place and the staff was friendly. I do not recommend going if your wanting to enjoy a peaceful relaxing camping trip. There is a seasonal camper right behind a cabin, next to site 251, they BLARE their music all night. There are signs for quiet time 11pm-9am being "enforced", it is NOT! You could feel and hear the music in the camper from sites away. There are signs for 5 mph "enforced ", it is not. All day and night carts and vehicles fly past. Golf carts with systems, blaring their music at all times. There were drunk people, from that seasonal site and another site, fighting until 2am, and even had one of them come to our campsite, and sit in one of our chairs. Overall not a pleasant weekend and will not return there.

Let me start off with the positives. The overall cleanliness of the grounds and the views of the tree covered hills around you were beautiful. The staff in the store were to the point and got us what we needed. Now on to the places where they can improve . There were ZERO quiet hours enforced the first night. Music was played throughout the tent camping area until 4AM and it only stopped because a storm rolled through. There obviously is no night watch there or they were cozy in their beds that evening. The female restroom was completely clogged up (every toilet) Sunday morning and that was before the office opened so the girls had to do their business elsewhere. Lastly for having river activities they seemed ill prepared to deal with the amount of customers they had. It was an hour and a half after we signed up to leave that a van finally picked us up. This could be an AMAZING place but the owners need to start taking control. I would try it again in the future and I hope they can make improvements in the meantime.

Employees were great at the desk.
Having been camping through my entire life I feel I know each campground is a little different. But, I have never been to a campground where other people camping have had so little disregard for everyone else around them. We constantly had people walking through the middle of our campsite paying no attention or have a care in the world that they were on our site. Multiple campsite around us blaring music until roughly 3-4am, and no one from the campground asked them turn it down. Obviously the quiet hours that should begin at 11pm are not enforced. Sunday morning 4/5 toilets were completely clogged until roughly 10am. Like I said, I’ve been camping all my life and I’m totally used to people playing music softly and talking around the fire into wee hours of the night, but this was out of control. I brought it up to the desk a few times and it doesn’t seem as though anything was done about it.

I have been coming here for about 9 years and my husband and his friends years before that!
We absolutely love it here!!! Its beautiful and peacful! We always stay next to the water the sites are a little rougher but its expected next to the water other sites up hill are very nice and flat...but we come for the river! The staff is always friendly and pleasant haven't had an issue of rude staff in past 9 years! We have a great time! The Dj on saturday is great the band on Fridays are amazing! We love it here its become a yearly adult vacation tradition for us!

Will start off by saying I have never written a review but felt strongly enough after cutting a 2 day booked trip to only 1 day that it was necessary. Yes, you read that right. Paid for 2 days but left after 1 night because of how negative the experience was.
First, don’t book a riverfront tent spot and especially not spot #60 unless you like to attempt to stake your tent in gravel. There isn’t grass…you’re paying an increased premium to camp in a small gravel driveway that just happens to be in front of the river.
Second, there is no enforced quiet time. Supposed to be at 11pm but there was screaming and yelling and loud music up until nearly 4am. There were even people jumping into and tubing down the river from 1am-4am who obviously had been drinking adult beverages all day. Don’t plan morning activities because you will not get an ounce of sleep.
Next, bring Vaseline and lube your rear quarters if you need to buy anything from the camp store. You’ll be paying quadruple what the item would be in a dollar store or walmart.
Next, wife wanted to shower after being kept up all night and there was no hot/warm water in the women’s bathroom. The men’s showers ended up being fine.
The next issue is we couldn’t even get into our campsite because several trailers used to collect tubes and canoes were parked right in front of our camp spot. When we let the workers know we were camped right there we were told we had to drive all the way around the campground and come in through the back.
In closing, it was a complete waste of $120 that was spent for a 2 night stay that turned into a 1 night stay. Also, ignore their “free wifi” claim. It only works if you’re inside the camp store.
