Seasonals 2019 fine, 2020 YIKES, we had a late start due to Covid and tornado damage. We informed owners we would be just using site during the week due to Covid (sites very close together). When we arrived on Monday ,we found a portable septic tank right next to our picnic table and another portable septic tank right next to where we sit for our fires. Even more, there was an OPEN hose connected directly to our neighbor’s RV black water tank dangling on our site UNCAPPED. Adding to this, one septic tank encroaching neighbor was flying a HUGE flag displaying the word SH&*T (noted this is a family campground). Complained: owners response to dirty seven: Little Red Barn does not impeded on campers’ “freedom of speech”. The saga continues, this “same” neighbor traipses over to OUR site while we are THERE!!!!!!!!!, dumps her human waste from the portable black water tank through clear tubing while puffing on a cigarette again RIGHT next to our picnic table with NO MASK (talk about almost throwing up!!!). OMG how gross who wants to eat while hearing and seeing feces travel down a clear tube and get be put at risk for Covid and smell smoke!!!!!!!!!!!. Owners response: emptying tanks in this manner is in alignment with policies at Little Red Barn. While still waiting for a response to our request to move these sewage boxes and hose, we placed tarps up so as to not have to view feces containers and open waste pipes. Bizarre, instead of requiring neighbors to move their waste, owners beeline over to our site and pulled the tarps down??? When we finally received a response the owners explained that: feces container were legitimately placed because of site “property lines.” And we were in the wrong by hanging tarps up because these the trees that we tied the tarps around did not belong to us. Owners requested us to drive a hour and half back to the campground (round trip as we live 45 minutes away) for a meeting regarding site boundary lines along with pointing out these forbidden trees. Oddly enough, these same “forbidden” trees we still had decorations on from last year???? The bottom is I really don’t care who “owns” a tree or where a site property line is??? We very simply refuse to smell/view human waste or have this same waste saturate the ground next to where my kids and us are sitting trying to eat or enjoy a fire especially during Covid. Other disgusting points, the owners were driving the honey wagon onto our site and emptying the honey wagon directly on our site. OMG!! they were sucking out waste RIGHT next to where we eat and sit, could this get any grosser because accidents happen from honey wagons!!!! Of importance, our site is VERY small with a HUGE rock in middle (which we wanted since we have a rescue farm). This is critical because we were simply unable to move our chairs/picnic tables away from human waste. MANY more emails with totally “weird” responses. We informed them that we don’t camp at cesspools (especially open sewer pipes). Hence, we would be leaving since they refuse to rectify this problem. After many more appeals to justify these cesspools/open sewer lines and other bogus arguments by the campground owners, we were refunded two months of our seasonal, however, it must be noted I am an...
Read moreThis review is for tent camping. The campground is fine and enjoyable. There were ample activities for the kids mostly from 4 years on up. We were placed in the back of the properties along with most of the tent camping crowd. Here are some things you will need to know before staying here:
Most importantly, the bathroom and shower facility is in the main building, which is quite a distance away from the primitive sites. I would say about a 10-12 minute walk. There is a small portable toilet but it is extremely gross, especially if you are female. There is bathroom in the pavilion but it closes at night. Since we were camping with 4 and 7 year old, we found the bathroom situation the most annoying part of this place. I would suggest that the owners invest in a shower/bathroom facility more central.
The wifi really doesn't work. It was sporadic and you'll need to be at the main building or the pavilion for it to "work."
As noted in the website, primitive sites does not have electricity nor water. The water part is important as you will need to figure out how to wash your pots, pans, dishes,etc. I typically carry 10 gallon bucket for such duties. Even so, you'll need to find a water spigot that is not used by a RV.
You can buy firewood on the property, but I find that you can save a lot of money by purchasing it outside the property. You'll see signs on the side of the roads for "campfire wood" and such.
Be ware that there is poison ivy and the like on the property. This is very common no matter where you go for this time of the year. You'll need to warn your kids about it.
The staff were friendly and took good care of the...
Read moreFor many years growing up we spent most of our summer weekends at LRB Campground. I have so many great memories from the time we spent camping here that I couldn't count them. After starting and raising a family of my own, I have decided that spending five times the amount of money and stressing out going to the shore that we are making the switch back to LRB.
There are plenty of activities for the kids and adults, too. The facilities are spotless! Everything is well maintained and the staff here are the most genuine, loving and caring people you could find. They are very helpful and made us feel very welcomed... almost like I never left. There is one staff member here that after all these years hasn't changed much (well maybe a little).
His name is Tom Roeder. Growing up, Tom set the bar for male sexiness. His perfect tan and 12 pack abs made all the girls want to be with him and every man want to be him. He made sitting in a chair with a whistle and some cutoff Wranglers sexy. I still wonder how he could achieve such a tan and have no tan lines. He waxed his body monthly, but not just for smoothness... for aerodynamics! Not only was he a lifeguard extraordinaire, he was a world class wrestler and football player (for one season). The inadequacy I felt growing up wasn't Tom's fault. He had no control of how his sexiness grew. To be so sexy would certainly be like a curse to most men... but we're not talking about an average man. To be so tough and still have the imagination to be the first metrosexual man in Quakertown is quite a feat. I missed this guy and it looks like he'll get to see me all the time now. Lucky him! Tom... I...
