Really beautiful campground. Sites are spread apart enough as well. I went on the lake loop hike and it was amazing

We enjoyed a thoroughly peaceful and relaxing stay. The campground's limited cell service (east river Verizon) made it an ideal setting for a digital detox. The trails were perfect for foraging and exploring the beauty of nature. I highly recommend the campground to those looking to reconnect with nature.

We loved staying at Dutchman! The sites are well-spaced, and the area is beautiful. We have three boys, and they have plenty of room to run around. We also got to see some deer go by a little way from our site, and had some very entertaining squirrels. Our camp host was also very kind. It was a short drive down to Deerfield Lake, and the lake is fantastic. The boys enjoyed fishing and skipping rocks. Our only hiccup was that the water available was gross and looked like apple cider vinegar in our water jugs.

We’ve stayed here a couple years in a row. The perfect spot in a quiet campground.

The only thing that would have made this place any better would have been a spigot that a hose could attach to would be great. Other than that, it was great. Great scenery, great sight and great campground hosts.

Camp host was wonderful and made our camp stay a great experience. The campground was well maintained and the toilets clean. The only reason we didn't give it a five star rating is the water supply this year remains pretty brown and sedimentary, and we weren't comfortable drinking it. In previous years at this campground the water supply was clear and quite acceptable. Not sure what this issue is at this time.

We loved our stay! The site was perfect. Everything was clean, and our site (11) had just the right amount of shade and sun. Our camp host was wonderful, I wish I remembered her name to give her proper credit! The lake was a short walk away, which was nice.
Having a closer bathroom would have been a bonus, as site 11 is in the middle of the 2 on that side of the campground, and it takes about 5 minutes walking to get to either one. But that wasn't as big of a deal.
Overall, we loved our stay here, and will be back next year!
