Site are bigger with lots of yard room. Beautiful lake views. a friend visited and stayed in a cabin. We were very pleased with it filled with all her needs. All staff are very pleasant to deal with except the young manager. On multiple exchanges, she acts as if I am bothering her, little to no eye contact, ordering tone when explaining rules. top it off with...my first time out of camp,I was at the gate with all tags showing but couldn't find the written gate code on my papers. She came to the office as I sat there, ignored me and let me stuggle for quite some time until I had to get out and walk inside and ask only to get it with a smirk. She is the only negative to this beautiful campground.

This could have been a much better experience. Biggest complaint is that a scheduled disconnect of electric was never communicated. When we called the property manager after the outage, that’s when we learned of the situation. We were told it shouldn’t be much longer, it turned out to be several hours. Any kind of heads-up and we could have been prepared. It is a nice property but nothing to do in the fall/winter. There weren’t any activities planned. There’s nothing closer than 30 minutes and the roads are treacherous. The lots in “C” are spacious but not paved and not level. Our auto-level on the rig was not happy and it took 20 minutes to work out the kinks. Our rig dragged in the area coming out of ”C” and did some damage. I’d like to believe that this place is great in the spring/summer but for now this review shall remain in place. There were some beautiful areas around Smith’s Lake.
