“No Thank You”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

The people may sound lovely over the phone, but that doesn't help this place. It has very small camping areas with little no absolutely no shade. A number of the spots are down and in front of the cabins, which are usually full of families drinking and fishing. They have a full view of you from their porches.

Besides that, almost the entire community of Selvin--where this is actually located--is located around or behind the "campgrounds." The thought of having my children near a gravel road that was traveled frequently wasn't very pleasant!

The price is cheap, for camping. There are reasons for that though, once you show up and realize that this place is little more than someone's large yard that has been transformed into a park-like setting.

“Not for family camping!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 June 2008

We selected this campground from an internet search only because Holdiay World's campground was full. Alhough it looked beautiful from website pics and the staff was very friendly by phone, it is just not a place for a family camp outing. The grounds are very small, and there are fees associated with fishing and the other activities available. When we arrived the sewer system was backed up and after viewing the grounds we left for a stay at the state park nearby. I think this place is more suited for a guy's fishing outing, not a family weekend..
