After the pavement ends, the terrain dies get a bit tough and hilly. Still very easy in terms of hikes but there are uneven sprints and some stones so just don't assume that the whole path is accessible or intended for everyone. Offered some great views and there appeared to be lots of fishing spots.

Compared to sylvan Lake Campground, this one lacked a little bit of privacy, but still a well…read moremaintained campground. We stayed in the site 25 which is technically a tent only/walk in site, but your car is parked right at the edge of your campsite so everything was still in close proximity. We had a staff member come up to us to check us in when we are setting up camp and she was so lovely. She told us everything we need to know about the campsite, where the drinking water was, what animals will be roaming the park, the pet policy, etc. The campsites are very shady which was nice! The general store has your typical souvenir apparel and gifts but also groceries, essentials, and beer! We enjoyed our stay but probably wouldn't pick this campground again because we personally like more secluded campsites.

We stayed at one of their basic cabins, which is a good value for money considering the other…read morelodging options within the park (that is not straight up camping). The cabins are pretty spacious, sleep 5 and have a nice outdoor patio, table and fire pit. Every cabin has parking for 1 car and bathrooms are shared nearby. The cabins were clean and basic, bring your own sleeping bag, pillow and whatever else you need. The only downside is the tiny bathroom, we had all cabins full and a good 120-130 people in the loop. But there is only 1 bathhouse with 3 toilet/sink/shower combo. It's not a regular bathhouse with 2 stalls shower, 3-4 toilets and 3 sinks. It was 3 actual bathrooms (they call it family bathrooms) that 100+ people have to share and get ready in the morning and nighttime. So once bathroom 1 had a family of 4 showering, that was blocked for half an hour. Got one more in the shower, you are down to a single toilet until someone decides to vacate the other bathrooms. Not ideal to say the least, you just have to get in line before you really really have to go. Lol The main lodge was across the street with good food options and there was also a small store and gas station on the campground side.

I have been to Rocky Knolls many times and until yesterday I have always found the clubhouse staff to be extremely pleasant and accommodating. Our tee time was at 9 am. We arrived early, a foursome, and were fully checked in by 8:30. Since I saw no golfers around, I asked if there was a group scheduled to tee of before us. The gentleman said a group of 2 was scheduled at 8:50. I hoped he would have suggested that we could go ahead and tee off since it was 20 minutes before the next group, who as best I could tell, hadn't even arrived yet--no such luck. Okay, our tee time was 9-0'clock and that was his call and I'm okay with that. Since a couple of us were not regular players, we decided on playing a 4-man scramble to keep the game enjoyable and to also keep it moving quickly. On the turn, we stopped to get beverages and I paid for them all instead of each having to pay separately and to allow getting back on the course quickly. As the attendant was ringing us up I tried to engage in some light-hearted conversation and I found his gruffness puzzling. Up until this time, I has always found the staff personnel to be friendly and engaging. Anyway, we completed our game and when we turned in our cart keys, there were no "Thank You's," Have a nice day," or "Come again" extended by the staff. To note, they were not overwhelmingly busy at this time. Our group was in no way rude or demanding. I'm hoping the folks were just having a bad day and this is not the normal demeanor of Rocky Knolls personnel.
