What Guests Are Saying

Windy Group Camp offers a nice location with plenty of firewood and ample parking. However, mosquito issues and unwanted vehicles intruding on the reserved area detracted from the experience. Improved security measures could enhance the stay significantly.

Nice spot, but the mosquitos are terrible. Plenty of firewood and ample parking.

Would be nice if they gave you an option to lock or block the entry while in use!
Even though it says reserved and is a private entry, we had multiple unwanted vehicles driving down and turning around and dusting everyone out. One rig we had to chase out in the middle of the night because they didn't understand it was a reserved group camp and wanted to set up. Would have been a 5 star rating otherwise.
