Most of this campground is occupied by long term residents. They have just opened a new section, section P, that is where we are camped. It's quiet but I have a few issues. One, there are NO trees in this field we are camped in. No shade means our air conditioner runs NON STOP. Also the grading over here is terrible. There are low spots all over the place and you really have to watch where you are going so you don't break an ankle. Another is the mosquitos! OMG they are awful!!!! There are two stagnant ponds in this campground and they are both contributing to the overwhelming amount of blood suckers! They seriously need Mosquito Joes out here ASAP and they need to add fountains to the stagnant ponds to keep the water moving. We used the large, clean laundry room and at a $1.50 a load I almost wished I'd have had more laundry hahaha! We used the game room while doing our laundry. Pool tables, air hockey, etc.. They have a small store at the registration office with lots of goodies and essentials. More signage is needed to direct you to the campground office. GPS had us at a house at the beginning of the road and we were really afraid we were in the wrong place and wouldn't be able to turn around while pulling our Jeep. Luckily we found it. There's a large playground here for the kiddos and they have lots of different weekly activities for residents and guests. They also have a boat ramp and marina on Cross Lake. Overall we had a nice stay but I wouldn't stay in the new section again in the summer. Bring your bug spray!!!

This is my first ever Yelp review but given the negative reviews I saw elsewhere, I really felt…read morecompelled to give my two-cents worth. We are brand new to trailer camping and campgrounds so that may color my review somewhat but we had a great time and really enjoyed this campground. It is by no means a resort but it is perfectly serviceable for our family which includes 2 and 4 year old girls. Check in was very smooth and friendly (including the very gentle reminder that the speed limit in the park is 5 mph and that I had come in a bit too fast which was true, I was doing 30 mph pulling up to the check in gatehouse). We were on site 164 which is in the open field and right next to one of the two playgrounds. the site included a picnic table and fire ring as well as the water and electric hook ups. We didn't experience any power or water issues during our stay as some others have reported. The major drawback as far as I am concerned is that there is no sewer hook up on your site and the line for the dump station at check out was a bit long. The pool had just open so was COLD but the girls had a good time and it was clean. As the other Yelp review mentions, bring your own chairs and you'll be happy. The restaurant/bar has a beautiful deck and we did have a drink and appetizers there. The prices were very good as was the food. The server couldn't have been nicer. This campground is close to home for us providing a nice quick getaway. It's super easy to get to, right off of the thruway. The people were nice, the grounds were nice and we really enjoyed our stay. Like I said in the beginning, I wouldn't call this a resort campground, but I didn't feel like I was paying resort prices either. We will definitely be back.

There has been a change in management...unfortunately, the new management company (northgate cough…read morecough) has undeniably mislead the current seasonal residents and continues to hurt what has the potential to be a great campground. There has been a complete lack of communication with the current seasonal campers. Rates have gone up without explanation, they are unable to staff the park, except with individuals who launder money or sexually harass coworkers and yell at children for bring children. When concerns are brought to their attention, they do not have a response and lack basic customer service. They refuse to honor previous agreements to RF and will not compensate their campers what was agreed upon from the previous owners. A campground was bought, they kept their agreements, they should honor their agreements, and learn from the mistakes they made. The management of this campground continues to make changes without asking their campers for their concerns and involving them. They will ultimately drive away their customers and run back to their other managed campgrounds. SHAME. Have fun collecting the new *tiered* fine system when you cant even staff a fryer cook in the unused restaurant....cool fireworks show though.

It's not too far off from Heritage Hill Brewery, so you can do a two-for and visit both-- however the park is lovely and worth a visit on its own. There's an overlook near the entrance where you can get a glimpse of the waterfall. However, the falls are also within walking distance of the start of the trail. The hill is on a slant and there are steep stairs, so the view may not be accessible for those who have difficulty walking. However, it was so calming just to sit and watch and listening to the waterfall. The day I went, there were others out but the paths didn't feel claustrophobic. I took some time and walked through the woods. The trail I took was relatively short, I think about a half mile total. I appreciated that there was a marker at the start that let you know how long it was. I am by no means a regular hiker (hoping to change that one day!) but this trail wasn't exhausting and was quite serene. This is a great park with a great waterfall and is definitely worth checking out!
