Wow...what fun! We enjoyed our stay here. Just to be sure everyone is aware, primitive means you stay in a big field surrounded by anyone who wants to camp near you, and I mean right next to you if they want.
So much bang for the buck! Extremely knowledgeable and courteous staff. Swimming, camping, and plenty other activities. As a family of five, on a shoestring budget...we always leave with great memories.
Good campground with a man-made lake with a bunch of attractions in the water for you to play on. Affordable beer/snacks in the beach clubhouse. Would've gotten an additional star if they hadn't removed the fire rings from the primitive sites.
We are annual attendees of the Yankee peddler festival. Buy your tickets ahead of time and save yourself waiting in line. If crafts and history is your thing than you will love it. Lot of walking. Hilly with very few paved walkways. It's like taking a nature hike with booths every few feet. There is a food area with every thing including breakfast. Live music and beer garden. Face painting and butterfly encounter for the kids. Motorcycle parking can be an adventure. Ask at gate but don't be surprised when you get the run around. Ended parking down on the stage area.
Visited the campground this past weekend. A couple of positives first. The reservation manager and check in employees were very accommodating. Also the park itself was very clean with exceptional shower/ bathhouse. Unfortunately, the negatives far outweigh the clean showers and nice employees. First off, the swimming lakes literally had a sewage smell along it's edge. There was also thick sludge at the shoreline that you had to pass through before entering the water. Pretty gross. We also had a gentleman come up to us and ask if we had any liquor in our cooler. We said no and he continued on asking others as well, even having them open their coolers. That's all fine and dandy, but then we saw him actually open several coolers that were sitting unattended. Maybe not illegal but obviously very intrusive and just plain shady. Finally, the worst part of our stay (we were in a tent). They rent out these loud, God awful, gas powered golf carts that run around the campground well past the so called 11 o'clock quiet hour cut off. We were right along the road with children and it was a nightmare. Many drivers just openly drinking as well, and many very young people driving. Lastly, there is a bar in the campground that we happened to be near, and we had a couple of large groups of drunken 20 something's come by our site spewing profanities and making unwarranted comments towards is. Completely ridiculous really. Really a shame. Could be a great family place but we will never go back.
