Love this campground, close to home, nice large lots. Newer campground so not much shade but trees have been planted. The trick or treat for the kids during my stay was awesome. Grandkids had a wonderful. Will be back again.

The campground is great with wonderful amenities. Our granddaughter loved the playground and all the Halloween activities. The grounds are kept cut and clean. The staff is wonderful! We will definitely camp here many more times in the future!

Had river view and the view was amazing. Quiet and peaceful. The train added to the ambiance. Watched numerous barges navigate the locks. We realize the campground is relatively new and an honest attempt is apparent….keep up the good work.

I really enjoyed the river view lot I was in. The lots were well separated with plenty of room to get into. I was really happy the office had ice because I forgot!!! I'll try to visit again next summer when I can stay for a few days. Sunset over the river was very nice.

The sites were very clean and plenty of space between other sites. Lots of activities for all ages! And I love that they celebrate Halloween EVERY weekend in October!!

Our campsite was right on top of another campsite and we were facing them. It was very awkward. The worst part is that we paid extra for this site. The description online of the site is very inaccurate.

Sorry for the misunderstanding, this are buddy sites and they are very popular, with friends and family camping together, plus you are very close to the playground.

Hard to rate the campground. It rained for all but one day. Sites were very level and large. Roads were wide and easy to back up with. Staff was friendly. Bathrooms were clean and fresh. Loved the view of the river.

River view sites are the only sites i would Stay at. Speed bumps going into the campground are a little much bounces you really bad. If you want to have a campground to just sit and relax this is the campground for you. If you like to go out and visit local attractions. There aren’t too many activities close by. Especially on rainy days.

Many good things but many areas of needed work. The gravel in the sites was much too big; hurt to walk on even with shoes. A lot of things unattended (bathrooms). Needs improvements. I would probably pick a different campground next time.

DISTRUCTIVE SPEEDBUMPS HARD ON EQUIPMENT. SITES UN-LEVEL, SEWER DROPS TOO HIGH, WAY OVERPRICED. CAMPGROUND HAD A MUCH BETTER CHANCE TO BECOME A VERY GOOD CAMPGROUND WHEN IT WAS A PRIVATE CAMPGROUND..

It was very scenic and the ohio river overlook was beautiful. I did wish that there was a chair in the laundry room to sit down while you did laundry. Also having more showers in the shower house would be a big plus. Other than that we really had a nice time. This was the first time we have stayed in a koa campground. My husband said that the gravel was big and hard to walk on and be smaller

Thank you very much for your review. As a new campground we continue to do improvements, the sites have been spread with smaller gravel for the comfort of our campers. We have a total of 4 private showers 2 in the front of the shower house and 2 in the back.

They need to relevel their site pads and cover the big gravel with smaller gravel so elderly people and handicap people can walk on the easier with walkers and wheelchairs . But it’s a nice campground with friendly employees. Other then the big gravel at least put smaller gravel in the picnic table area and walking areas would be great

The speed bumps are a little extreme and is not good for the trailers has they traverse them.

Thank you very much for your review. The speed bumps are for the safety of the kids and all the families camping with us. We want them to enjoy their bicycle rides and a nice walk at the campground.

Weekend getaway. Loved the river views. Saw 3 eagles on Friday and a variety of other birds. Facilities are really nice and so we're the folks running the campground.

Nice park and very convenient to bridge connecting Wheelersburg OH to Greenup KY. Large spots, several right along OH River. Nice play ground for children. Only issue is lack of shade. Trees are planted, but small.
Aug 07, 2024
We chose this campground due to its Ohio River front location. Owners are very personable and the site they suggested was perfect for watching the river traffic and sunsets. There's really no shade as it's a new park with few trees. This is a pretty remote location so a vehicle would be needed to travel to area attractions such as downtown Portsmouth which is pretty unique. Clean swimming lake!

i am not a member. i had no ideal they changed until i got there. ithank there grounds are laid out a little backwards. as the pound should be out were the beach is. there is no hard surface for handycap camping. this made it hard for my mother to get in and out of my rig. at this point in time over night camping is all i would rate it at.

Great spot along the Ohio river. The place was very clean and sites were level with plenty of room. Cleanest bathrooms and shower house I've ever seen in a campground,.Plenty of on-site recreational activities for adults and kids. The owners were very friendly and helpful. I'll be back.

Sites need a little finesse work on the leveling and some of the picnic tables need work. Overall I am pleased with campground and will continue using!

Owners driving around picking up the smallest litter, well laid out, literally feet from the river. Looks like a newer facility all around. Would stay again

We absolutely love this campground! The staff is so friendly and helpful. Our boys love the playground, the peddle cars and the mining. Everything is so clean and the campground is taken very good care of. We are already planning our next camp!
