Nice place for lots of family fun, IF you aren't concerned about using clean bathrooms and showers. One of the main reasons we bought a travel trailer was so we would rarely have to use public facilities of any kind, so this wasn't a problem for us.

Let me start in saying the campground is nice except for a couple of issues. First, the electric and water hookups are in the most ridiculous spots! Sometimes they are on the wrong side of your camper. Not sure who designed these sites but since I didn't have an extension cord, I had to park my trailer sideways on my site. When they say your hookups are 30' away, believe them! Secondly, the bathrooms were old and filthy! I don't know if was the other campers letting the kids run without supervision... Read More

When they say your hookups are 30' away, believe them! Secondly, the bathrooms were old and filthy! I don't know if was the other campers letting the kids run without supervision or what but we found toilets with fecal matter on the seats, plugged up and no toilet paper. The one shower would overflow so you had to make it quick or you would be wading in nasty water. That said, there is enough to keep you busy outside of the campground and the park is beautiful with everything reasonably priced. Don't wear sandals or any open shoes into the caves, water and mud inside some of them. My only other complaint was someone (not sure who but suspect it was my neighboring site) unplugged my electric! Luckily I never turned of my propane so my food didn't spoil. That has never happened in the 30+ years camping.
