To my surprise the owners texted to check on our progress. Not once did they ever have anything but a positive attitudes. We made it in and got settled very late. The time difference had us off slightly. The whole cabin was well furnished and extremely clean. It was very roomy and came with amenities most 5 star hotels don't! I was completely shocked at the experience and have now found a new place for my family to go whenever we feel a need to "get away", which is often! Upon our departure, the owner was even nicer than when we first met! I am so pleased with this place I will recommend you trying it out for yourself. If you don't like your first night is on me! ***Wink wink*** Make sure to check in for great coupons and little bonus gifts.

I am absolutely livid. The campground has no running water. I understand that emergencies happen,…read morebut there have been zero updates on when the water will be restored. None. The bathrooms were locked without notice, leaving every guest without access to toilets or sinks. There are no portable toilets, no bottled drinking water, no alternative restroom facilities, and no accommodations of any kind. Families with children are expected to simply deal with it. To make matters worse, we're in the middle of a heat wave. Guests have no access to running water while temperatures are extremely high. It's a legitimate safety concern, especially for families with young children, older adults, and anyone who needs reliable access to water and sanitation. The pool has also been closed during our stay. No explanation was given, and no one has communicated when, or if, it will reopen. That's another advertised amenity that has simply disappeared without any communication. The cabins are also missing basic amenities that other KOA Holiday I've stayed at provides, including hand soap and shower products. It's another sign that this location falls well below the standard I've come to expect from the KOA brand. What has me so angry isn't that something broke. Equipment fails and I get that. It's the lack of communication, the lack of preparation, and the lack of concern for guests. Locking the bathrooms, providing no alternatives, offering no drinking water, and leaving guests with no information during a heat wave is completely unacceptable. As I write this, I still have no running water, no access to restrooms, no alternatives, and no idea when any of this will be resolved. This is the worst KOA experience I've ever had, and there is absolutely no way this campground should carry the KOA Holiday designation. Update: 9am the next morning. It has been over 14 hours since the water shut off. Still no mass communication to the campground. Still no backup bathroom or water. Still no status on the refunds. Customers on the campground are very upset.

We stayed in one of the new pull through full hook up sites, it was spacious but not shady. They planted new trees so some shade will come. The pool is nice.

Definitely go eat at Patty Cakes!

I recently stayed at this campground and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience -- not…read moreonly with the conditions of the site, but with the rude and condescending response I received when I reached out about a legitimate health concern. During our trip up north, this was the only place where my asthma was triggered. We spent four days in other areas affected by the Canadian wildfires without any issues whatsoever. The morning after arriving here, my asthma became severely aggravated, and we were forced to leave early. The stagnant pond next to our campsite was covered in scum, clearly releasing mold and spores into the air. This was the only environmental change during our trip, and the only place where my breathing became compromised -- making it obvious that the pond conditions, not wildfire smoke, caused the reaction. When I emailed to cancel the remainder of our reservation and requested a refund, I would have fully understood if the campground simply reiterated their no‑refund policy. However, the response I received was unnecessarily dismissive and patronizing. I was told, in a condescending tone, that "algae is not associated with asthma," followed by an incorrect assumption that wildfire smoke was the cause -- despite the fact that we had been in wildfire‑affected areas for days with zero symptoms. A polite explanation of policy would have been acceptable. The attitude was not. The man taking reservations was rude from the first phone conversation and I was reluctant to make a reservation, but was unable to find a campsite in the area that had a GUARANTEED SITE, not first come first serve. Customer service matters, especially when guests are dealing with health issues. Instead of listening, acknowledging the concern, or even responding neutrally, the staff chose to be dismissive and incorrect about the situation. That alone ensures we will not be returning. This is the EMAIL- so no speculation on my interpretation of the response from the resort. Please cancel our reservation for today, Saturday July 18th. The pond scum severely bothered my asthma, and we were forced to leave early this morning. Please add payment charge back to my credit card. Thanks Wendi ----------------/------------------//----------- Good morning, Thank you for reaching out. Per our policy, we are unable to issue refunds for guests who choose to end their reservation early. Additionally, algae is not associated with asthma or other respiratory conditions. I sincerely apologize that the smoke from the Canadian wildfires affected your visit and caused you to shorten your stay. We appreciate your understanding and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back under better conditions in the future. Kind regards, Alycia On Sat, Jul 18, 2026 at 7:17AM Wendi
