Nice spot for tent camping. Flat, grassy spots to pitch a tent. Easy access to the water from camp. Lots of shade. Bring your bicycle and canoe or kayak. There is a mini library box. I traded the book I finished for another.

The one thing that had me worried
Was no service if EMS may be needed. The sign for the campground was not marked well. Otherwise it was a great experience. The employees were very helpful and knowledgeable.

Quiet Iocation Site 134. Waterview not easy water access. The site is close to showers. Restrooms/showers were super clean. It would be helpful if there were more hooks in showers. The grass needed to be cut. We were there n Monday and left Friday. We'll be back!

Beautiful campground on the Holly river. We stayed in site 49 which bordered the river. We were able to kayak the river and let our dogs swim along side. Our twin grand daughters used a stand up paddle board. There is a small snack stand in the park. The road and most sites are paved. It is a family friendly and quiet place. The cell phone service is almost non existent but can sometime get 1 bar on AT& T. Nice place to sit around the campfire and roast marshmallows and have smores. There are boat rentals available. Flatwoods is o ly 7 miles away and has some places to eat and a Walmart. There are several gas stations.

Make it more clear about hook ups. We didn’t think we had sewer hook ups but we did. We really like this campground and we have been here before. I know we came in after the holiday weekend but the trash was overflowing everywhere for 4 days and the grass was so high some people brought their own mower to cut the grass. Maybe bring in extra dumpsters for holidays.
