    Staff was friendly, but cleanliness needs major improvement…read more Everyone I interacted with was very nice, which I appreciated. However, what truly determines whether I'd return to a place is its cleanliness, and unfortunately, this is where the site fell short. The bathrooms were dirty and felt neglected something that should really be addressed on a daily basis. Additionally, the laundry area was moldy, unkept, and with only one working dryer for the entire park, it made doing laundry a challenge. Overall, it's okay for a short stay, but I wouldn't return unless the cleanliness standards were raised.

    I would like to share my experience this past weekend at Winding River in Exeter NH. My family of 3…read moreStayed at tent site 523 in the Oak area. We also had family at 553 and 554 and Cabin 2. About site 523: I clearly had one of the largest and most private tent sites. It was set back with a long driveway tucked between 522 and 524. It's a very steep drop into the river making most sites a little nerve wracking with a little one. Online it said water available but there wasn't a hookup on my site. It looked like there may have been one to share on the road, but I didn't end up needing to figure that out. Tent sites 522 and 524: Along with most of the tent sites these sites were very close to each other, much smaller and closer to the road. I wished my family members had gotten 552 and 553 as they blended together nicely if you are tenting in side by side spaces. The ground was very rocky making staking tents down difficult. They were right next to the bathroom which was convenient but loud. Ventilation in the bathroom was not good so the doors were propped open much of the time and loud hand dryers. Shower: - This is the smaller of the two bathrooms in the campground. There are 2 showers there. Each with a single insufficient curtain and no hooks on the wall or bench to place things down. Water was hot enough, pressure was ok if you set it to the high power massage-like setting. - The showers in other bathroom (near the town center area) had a door and two curtains. Some had hooks (some of which were broken). I almost tripped going in and out of these bathroom stalls because they are raised up but there is no marking on the ground to indicate that. Cabin 2: Ac worked well. There was a good sized bed downstairs, smaller beds in two lofts. I was surprised the couch didn't pull out. Fridge and all dishes were nice and clean. All the cabins seem to have different back porch setups. This porch was smaller than C1. There was a propane grill that smelled rancid with sooo much caked on The burners. The location of the ceiling fan under the other lights in the ceiling gave them a flashing effect that really bothered me. Pros: - Lower price compared to other campgrounds (but I don't feel like I got everything advertised on the website) - Two playgrounds, both were nice. - Water slide was fun - We arrived Thursday at the gate and were told how to get to our site, to set up and then come over to the office which was nice. Cons: - The river is very low and yucky so none of the boating or fishing advertised was possible. likely causing the massive amount of mosquitos. - The whole arcade building was was "out of order" - The laundry room had two washers (one was broken) and two dryers 2.50 each per load. Not sufficient for a campground this size (especially when people leave their clothes in the machine for 30 mins after they're done!) - Camp store was poorly stocked (multiple empty coolers). - Ice $3 per SMALL bag. - Wood $10 per bundle and rules say you can't bring from off-site. I saw people with huge metal bins of wood but was never offered that option when I payed for multiple bundles. - Camp store closes at 3 on Sunday and doesn't open until 11 am during the week (which is also checkout). This made it a little confusing when I wanted to return the golf cart. They have a small area with icecream that is scooped and maybe a kitchen. I never saw it open but I think the sign said open morning to 12 and then again in the evening. - The pool was green and cloudy on day 3. I called the office and was told they had just shocked it and that was a result of the copper. I am not informed enough on pool safety so I opted out of swimming on the hottest day of our stay. My son was bummed. - Planned activities were only scheduled for Friday and Saturday evening. CORRECTION: activities were scheduled starting at 10 AM Saturday. During adult kareoke there were plenty of kids and really poor wifi (wasting so much time between songs). And just to add: - Staff I encountered was friendly enough, but It would be nice if they wore shirts to identify themselves. - Golf cart was great, but cost more than the site per night. - Pedal go-carts were available for rent (I didn't ask a price).

    At first I really didn't understand the reviews on this place that are less than three stars. Then…read moreI looked again at how many places those people have reviewed and it seems to me someone has a vendetta against the current owners. We really enjoyed camping at this campground. They offered a lot of amenities and activities as well as large, semi-private sites. Our site was level and had a picnic table, a fire pit, electric and water. We also felt like we had no neighbors as there was plenty of green space between our campsite and the next. We had no issues with mud at all. We had NO issues at all. This campsite offers laundry, men's and women's bath houses, a general store, gem hunting for the kids, bouncy houses, a swimming pool with a waterslide, kayaks and much much more. The staff was super friendly and helpful! We had a great time here. It was quiet for the most part and we stayed over Labor Day weekend. Definitely will be back went in the area!

    This was my family's spot when I was a kid. The last time I was there I was 15 and now I'm 31…read more There has been a lot of improvements since then. This is a great spot if you have kids. They added this awesome slide to the pool. The pool is nice and clean but the bottom is peeling. They also have some inflatable jumpy houses and a playground with this huge jumpy thing. I did go in the public bathroom and looked at the showers. It all looked clean. We stayed in a cabin. C1 to be exact. I could've picked between C1 and C2. After seeing both we wish we picked C2. It was a lot newer but a different layout. You can tell there was a newer air conditioner also. They are adding a bunch more that are still under construction. C1 wasn't the worst but I wouldn't stay in it again. The negatives of the cabin. When we arrived the cabin was so hot and the air conditioner was weak and dirty. They really need to replace it. It took an entire day for the cabin to cool down. There's really no windows to open up and you can't leave the sliding door open because there's no screen and bugs get in. There was a TV but didn't really work. Also the cabin was pretty dirty. It needs a major cleaning. There was still coffee grounds left in the coffee pot so we didn't even touch it. My kids feet would get so black from walking around barefoot. I cleaned the floor and the cloth was black. Positives of the cabin. You can fit 8 comfortably. There was a queen bed in its own room. A queen in the loft. The loft was small. You can't stand up or anything. A bunk bed and a pull out couch. You have to bring your own linen. It has a full kitchen and bathroom. There was a picnic table and also a fire pit. It comes with a gas grill that worked great. Plus what a view by the water! To sum it up I gave it a 3 because it's a nice place but the cabin needs some work. I won't book cabin C1 again. If you have kids this is a great place. They have events pretty much every weekend. It's quiet with lots to do and the staff were very nice. Also close to Salisbury and Hampton Beach which are great places to visit. I will definitely be returning next summer!

We do swim lessons here in the summer and gymnastics during the school season, and I can't wait for my kids to be old enough so they can attend the various night events and vacation week camps. We started my youngest at 7 months for swimming and 2-ish for gymnastics (honestly this could have been earlier, they just need to be able to walk decently well). You gotta register for things quick, however, as the spots fill up fast!

    So clean, so big and such a great staff. Watching from the balcony it is amazing to see how they…read moreteach our kids to do different tricks with all different approaches. They use furniture movers to have the kids pull or push their legs for strength and conditioning as an example. After a recent meet, they realized that the girls were talking extra steps on the floor routines so they placed hula hoops on the floor and made the kids stay in them to realize their steps. Autumn is so helpful and friendly at the front desk and the coaches are very nice to the kids as well as the parents. They have welcomed us to their family and we are grateful to them. Be careful when you are selecting a local gym as you have several to choose from. This place has unripped mats, it doesn't have a known pest issue and the coaches are not grumpy and aloof to the people paying them good money! We made the incorrect choice approximately 4 years ago but it is better late then never!
