PLEASE READ BEFORE CHECKING IN. This will be structured as 1: Pros and Cons. 2 my experience
Pros: -The short haired blonde woman that works the desk is very friendly.
Negatives: The owner is what I hope is just half in the bag drunk on a Thursday at 5pm and not a physically and verbally aggressive person by nature.."I hope" a sad hope for the owner of a children's campground Horrible experience!! The owners who clearly appears to be half in the bag drunk is trying to fight people and verbally assaulting my grandmother while we walked the park looking at sights. I dont know where to start but 1st thing 1st this IS NOT a CHILD FRIENDLY campground. The woman who I can only assume is the wife of the owner (long darker hair woman) guided us into our camp sight and well we are towing a 40' camper (so we have a little swing to our turns) well shes on a golfcart squeezing us in and out of very tight sights to get us back to where our camp sight was. Well she ended up putting us in a sight with an offset driveway to get into our sight with no wiggle room and trees on the left and a truck half in the road on the right. Well you remember that little swing I mentioned ealier we can't just do 2 sharp 90°turns and expect to swing staight.. right.. I mean physics.. So we pull into our sight taking the poorly planned route for a camper of our size guided by the woman with dark hair, then she gave us a little wave and went on with her day.. so the situation should have gone. Well here is where the Sh#t hits the fan. So we are hooking up on a terribly muddy sight that is way to small for us but hey we are just here for a night and its storming so no reason to go to the desk and see if anything else is available b/c the entire state is a mud pit right now (April). So we get all hooked up take the slides out and me and my grandmother decide to walk the campgrounds and next thing we know here come the dark hair woman that just gave us a little friendly wave and a man(owner) well the man starts yelling at my grandmother something along the lines of "oh I see you went on the mud are you going to fix that." We are a nice bunch of people so we walked over to him thinking he's a grounds keeper wanting to talk about how muddy it is etc. We get closer & he repeats himself but this time im close enough to tell that something isnt right in this situation, so I tell my 5'3" grandmother to not walk closer b/c I think hes drunk, so I keep walking up and he starts to yell and swear at the top of his lungs " are you going to fix this f#$king mud. So l calmly say "its muddy thats how we got guided in by the woman next to you so thats how we had to pull in." Well at this point the black hair woman is telling him to calm down, but as a drunk does he continued yelling and swearing and when I repeated myself about its muddy the fault is no ones. We got put into a turn we cant back out of and we got told to pull thru by your staff (woman I assume is his wife) and that this is a campground, trailers swing wide, mud is soft, and a 40'+ vehicle cannot make the same turns a golf cart can. Well at this point he called me a punk and tried to get me to fight him. Me a 135lb guy that looks to be all of 16 years old. His wife was driving the golfcart and clearly took off before her husband had a lawsuit on his hands. So surely this is the end of it right? Wrong he comes flying back thru this campground with a speedlimit of 5.5mph going atleast 25mph on his golfcart clearly after finishing another beer and tries to get back in my face. After some time he calmed down and said here is you money now leave my land im calling my friend a police officer. We just ignored him and decided to leave sense it was just a overnight stop. So when we pack up & pull out. At this point the police are at the front desk talking to him so me and my grandfather went to the office to get our money back and I wanted to inform the police that he was getting violent and most likely driving the cart drunk. Well they are as aggressive as the drunk owner and threated...
Read moreMy daughters came home from Tennessee for a family wedding at Yogi bear Yellow Stone rv campground.. When we got to the campground (that we have never been to) the gate was open. As we are trying to figure out where we are suppose to park we hear a man yelling at us.. we pull over and roll down the window and the man is yelling "didn't you see the sign.. it's common sense.. didn't you see the sign." We explained that we were sorry and we were there for a wedding and he said "he didn't care.. that we need to sign in" so we pull over to where he was pointing and as my fiance is walking into the building explaining again that we had never been there and was trying to figure out what we needed to do next.. the man still repeating angrily people have no common sense.. after I look at my oldest daughter and see tears in her eyes.. I roll down the window and say" excuse me sir.. you don't have to keep insinuating that we are stupid by commenting about common sense .. we did not see the sign we said we were sorry.. You don't have to be so rude".. he then said " you know what.. how about you just leave this property" we said we are here for a wedding we need to at least tell them we were here.. he said he didn't care that we need to leave or he will call the cops and that he isn't getting paid for this... So.. as we are leaving my daughter sees her friend and we pull over to explain what happened. He tells us to just get out and come to the wedding. So we did. Then a few minutes later the man comes over and says we need to leave again. So we said a few choice words about him and headed out. Apparently something really awful must have happened to him before we got there for him to be so nasty. We left. Went to the zombie walk had ice cream in the river in Jeffersonville and went home and played 2 games of Cornhole with the kids.. had a great night anyway. Congratulations to our friends who still had a beautiful wedding! We...
Read moreThis is the first negative review I have ever left on Google. My husband and I are fairly new to camping with a travel trailer, although I grew up camping. We drove up from Louisville to enjoy a day of looking at potential campsites. As we approached the gate, we noticed that it was open, with no one in sight, so we decided to look around. There was a sign on the gate that said "stop" but the sign can only be seen when the gate is closed.
The grounds were pretty, and we were definitely going to try to stay there. Someone passed us in a golf cart and said hello. We assumed it was another camper, so we waved and kept going.
Afterward, we parked to see if anyone was in fact inside the visitor center so we could stop and ask questions. The owner pulled up in her golf cart and proceeded to berate us for driving around the campsite. She said "How would you like it if people drove around your property?" And, "You blew me off when I said hi."
Incidentally, we live in a crowded city neighborhood and have people on our property all the time, without us being concerned. My husband apologized REPEATEDLY, but she kept berating us. She would not let it go. She kept bringing up examples of how wrong we were, how angry she was. She insinuated that we were there to steal things.
My husband and I are kind people, professionals in our late 50's, in a Toyota Corolla, definitely not dangerous looking. We will never...
