Very nice area and land! Little close to the interstate but not too much that it’s annoying. Will definetly be back! Very nice welcoming hosts. Stayed in tent site 3 which was little secluded but still near bathrooms / shower & all trails.

Site 10 - RV'ing W/Elec at site Water to fill
Great showers! Nice location even though our site was near a creek and had lots of bugs. Office offered what looked to be good food options. Overall we would stay again!

We got there and we had to change tent sites 3 times before we liked where we were. The freeway was so loud we had to yell at each other to hear what we were saying. The bathroom was over crowded with how many people were there. Only one bathroom for 50 people. It really tucked. We had a tent site for 2 days but we were out of there the next morning. I will never go back to this camp spot

Site 1 - Tent Camping at Shady Brook
Beautiful place to pitch a tent in a thunderstorm. I was greeted by the host on arrival. The shower room was clean and modern. Small town just down the road with a grocery store.

Floating Bed
Loved the floating bed in the tree. Threw a sheet on the 'floor' & slept great all night. Plus the nearby bathroom facility was about the cleanest/best at any campground I've ever been to.

Beautiful spot! Well maintained and clean as can be. A nice hot shower after a long road day!
