Personal Comments:
This place is amazing. It's like a Disney Land for Campers. Once you get here, you never need to leave, and that could be for weeks on end before you see everything! They stay open year round and have little cabins in case you have some friends who dont have an RV but want to join you.
In the winter they provide cross country trails, and snowmobile trails. In the summer, hiking and ORV trails and they also host the Annual Iceman Commeth Mountain Bike Race each November, which is why we were here.
Its a really amazing campground and privately owned! This was our first campground we ever stayed in, and it totally spoiled us. The owner was out there backing me in to my site, helped me hook up and even answered a bunch of my questions on how to do things. They really made the maiden voyage a time to remember.
