What Guests Are Saying

Gerald Freeman Campground is praised for its beautiful setting, cleanliness, and family-friendly atmosphere, making it a favorite among visitors who appreciate nature and peace. Many enjoy the well-maintained sites, easy access to water activities, and helpful staff. However, there are some concerns about high grass, inconsistent maintenance of facilities, lack of WiFi, and limited cell service, which some feel detracts from the overall experience.

We love staying here! We’ve been coming here for each holiday and it’s kid friendly and we’ve never had any issues. Definitely check out the snack shack for boating rentals they have the best prices.

We were pleasantly surprised that we had full hookup at our site. This was not clear when we registered on the website. The bathhouse was kind of old and not cleaned often enough. They need air conditioning too. Other than that we loved our campsite.

We absolutely love this camp ground. We always come here. My kids love it. It’s a great place to bring ur family. One thing I can say is the bathrooms need a lot more attention and maybe a mirror for the lady’s room. But other then that it was great

I love the campground and being near the water. The only thing I dislike is not having any cell phone service. I do need to check in with family. Or if we would need medical attention we can’t make any calls without driving a couple of miles.
