2 January to 2 February, 2007. Rocky and I first visited this campground in 1998 when they first opened. When we renewed our memberships, they were surprised to learn that our membership numbers were from the earliest days of their opening season. This place has two bars, a convenient store, full hookup sites, rental cabins, primitive camping sites and permanent houses that patrons have purchased for full time residency. There are woods, trails and a large RV storage section. I built many large fires in the open field near the RV storage area that was isolated from the other areas. The pool is heated, with lots of seating and an adjacent bar that serves a variety of simple food items such as chicken fingers, etc. The entire pool area is clothing optional. We stayed here for a month at a full hookup site and had a great time.
