I felt it was time around 2021 to get involved in some of the committees and see what was going on with our HOA and meet the BOD. In my opinion, WOW Was I surprised to find out we had a good old boy board, In my opinion If you weren't one of their friends or close acquaintances You were not on the board and no chance of being placed. I can speak from experience, I ran for the board next thing I know, I have the board president knocking on my door asking me to resign so they could put one of their good old boy friends in. I felt at that time I didn't want to deal with this kind of BS so decided to resend my application. After much thought, meeting some really good people in the community that were trying to do the right thing, I stood fast. I joined the Finance Committee went toe to toe with the good old boys BOD. I was one of the main focuses of developing the rental cap committee because I had foreseen a problem with more than 25% of the community being rentals. There was a vote 50% plus one and it passed. It's 2026 now and I can say from experience things have completely turned around. We have a top-notch general manager onsite now and the board is active, transparent and making some awesome changes. Mountain Shadows RV Resort is a beautiful place to live, very affordable and welcoming. I would recommend Mountain Shadows RV Resort.

We were really looking forward to our stay, but when we arrived at our campsite, there was an…read moreactive colony of large harvester ants throughout the area where we were supposed to pitch our tent. These ants are known for having one of the most painful stings in North America, so we didn't feel it was safe or reasonable to set up our tent there. When we expressed our concerns, we were initially told, "It's nature," which felt dismissive. We understand that insects are part of camping, but an active colony of stinging ants directly in the campsite is different from seeing a few bugs. We also noticed cigarette butts scattered around the campsite, which made it seem like the site hadn't been cleaned or maintained very well before our arrival. To the campground's credit, they explained they were completely booked and couldn't move us to another site, and they did provide us with a full refund, which we appreciated. We just wish the campsite had been inspected and cleaned before guests arrived, and that our concerns had been taken more seriously from the start. We had no other choice but to go home. Waste of money (buying camping gear, food and gas to drive there) and time!

Her positive attitude and organization really stood out and made the camp experience special. The only downside was that it could get pretty loud at times with all of the kids and activities going on, but that's also to be expected at a busy camp environment. Security was able to handle the noise which was great. Overall, Sydney truly made the experience memorable, and we would definitely come back because of her!

I read about The Holiday's on Trip Advisr and was pleased to find mid-week openings the next week. I paid for one night in advance, but after the fun my granddaughter had that first day, I paid for another night and am glad to have done so. The turquoise and white trailer, "The Drifter" is adorable, as are all four units. Andy, the owner/ manager is friendly, easy to reach by phone, and stops by each day to provide for the needs of his current renters, and to prep for the next to arrive. With an included fridge, freezer, 3 burner stove, plates, cups, mugs, utensils, bbq utensils, sink with running water, heat, ample sleeping for 4, bath towels, beach towels, USB ports, board games, cards, and a bluetooth sound system, the trailer offers plenty of convenience for its diminuative size. For a small extra charge a generator provides AC, microwave and electricity. Each trailer gas picnic table, charcoal bbq, and a firepit... though we joined other campers at the communal firepit and enjoyed making new friends. The Holiday's Community has a shared storage shed filled with complimentary games (Jenga, Cornhole, Horseshoes, oversized Checkers, Bocce Ball, etc.) beach supplies (umbrellas, boogie boards, noodles). The beach is gorgeous... there are two paths to access the beach, one is quite steep and the hike back up is tough. The other path nearest to the Visitor Center is less steep. All in all, big props to The Holiday's! I will definitely be returning.

I liked the waterfowl; and my cat loved watching them out the windows. Our site (#130) was quite large. I enjoyed spending time outside and at the pool. I wasn't thrilled that the store was not open, anytime I stopped by during our entire stay. I did like receiving texts to update us about resort activities. The only major problem we encountered was the horrible bathhouses. We tried two, but they were both very cramped with only a single shower stall. And, they were filthy.
