    The website is pretty good & I was so looking forward to a long weekend tent camping. . There have a crazy train -- enough said! ! The staff were friendly & welcoming. Check in was quick & easy. Map was well detailed so it was easy to find my site. Tent site was pretty big, impressive. It was clean & the whole campground was well maintained. There's a center pavilion with picnic tables & evening snackbar. Bingo was going on while I went to the pool for a quick swim before dinner. Kayak rentals as well as paddleboats. The lake actually goes out to the Moosup River with walking trails around. Elvis, performed Saturday night and it was awesome! ! There's a campstore well stocked for all your camping needs. Across the way is the Lucky Strike mine so you can pan for treasures. It was fun!! Staff was such a presence in the park, it was good to see them driving around, talking with campers, collecting trash, cleaning the restrooms, enforcing quiet hours. It was such a good camping experience, I look forward to going back. Definately make a trip & check this place out!! So worth it!!

    I was just here this past weekend for a music festival, and this was the perfect venue for it…read more The grounds are gorgeous, with plenty of space for camping. Lots of waterfront camping space, but if you actually want to be able to sleep in on those hot summer mornings there's also lots of space in the wooded areas to camp. Everything was really clean upon arrival (as clean as it can be for being a camping area) and was kept as such throughout the weekend. Not an easy task when you have 500+ people traipsing around. There's two sets of restrooms (with running water) and the ones at the front also have 2 showers in each bathroom (mens and womens). The showers were much great, hot and good water pressure. There's also a concession area right as you arrive at the campground which carries smaller items (sunglasses, waters, etc) and are super reasonably priced. The only downfall is that you can't swim in the lake (at least not when I was there), but it's a bit murky so I'm not sure if one would want to. They do rent out paddleboats and canoes though for $50 a day with a $50 refundable deposit. There's also some pretty good fishing in the lake. One of my favorite things about this place was the fact that the owner, John, was always on hand. Interacting with patrons, making sure things were running smoothly. He really did a great job of making us feel welcomed. I'll definitely be returning next year :D

    We have spent the last three years during 4th of July weekend at Camp Echo Lake, and we love it…read more Everyone is friendly and the staff do their best to make sure your stay is enjoyable. The kiddies love it and so do I. Thank you Camp Echo Lake.

    If by quiet retreat you mean loud music, drunken seasonal campers and a mildly absent owner this is…read morethe place for you. If you're thinking this is a family campground and taking your kids be ready to explain a lot of behavior. Like drinking and driving golf carts? Blasting music till quiet hour while harassing weekenders who drive 1mile over the 5mph speed limit? Then this place is for you. Fear not if you've run out of booze, there's a fully functioning bar down back. Bored? Have you ever been in a knife fight? Well that happens here to. The owner (Kim) doesn't keep track of paperwork or your deposit so I suggest you do. It's the same crafts for the kids it's been for the 5 years we were seasonal. The electric is severely outdated and the WiFi isn't strong enough to actually use it. Dogs are allowed to bark nonstop and if you complain be ready to be told "that's what dogs do". The upgrades to the campground are nonexistent but the upgrades shes made to her house that's on the same property are definitely noticeable. Just know your money isn't going into the campground it's going to her house. Just go to George Washington. It's right down the road. It's quiet, peaceful and clean. No drunks and excessively loud live music. It's a campground not a bar.

    Have been here multiple times last year and this season.. by far the best value around…read more If you like privacy, clean public areas, themed weekends with great live entertainment at the rec hall you gotta check it out. Plus the wifi service covers the whole place, if your job follows you. The Owners are so accommodating..

    Unfortunately, we experienced several issues throughout our visit that significantly impacted our…read morestay. On June 29, I called earlier in the day to ask whether our cabin might be available before the 4:00 p.m. check-in time. I was told that early check-in would not be available that day, but that the cabin could possibly be ready around 3:30 p.m., and that we were welcome to arrive early and enjoy the campground amenities while we waited. We arrived around 3:00 p.m. and were told the cabin was not ready and to return at 4:00 p.m. Since we had family staying at the campground, we waited at their cabin. While walking by our assigned cabin, a woman who identified herself as the Head of Housekeeping stopped and asked if everything had been cleaned properly. We explained that we had been told the cabin was not yet ready. She went inside, immediately realized it had not been cleaned, apologized, and assured us it would be cleaned right away. Shortly before 4:00 p.m., we walked back to the cabin and saw that the housekeeping staff had already left. I then went to the office to check in, only to be told that the cabin still had not been cleaned. I explained my earlier conversation with the Head of Housekeeping, and the office staff repeatedly attempted to contact housekeeping over the radio. Eventually, another employee who was already responding to a separate cabin issue was sent to verify the cabin's status. I ultimately waited nearly 45 minutes in the office after the official 4:00 p.m. check-in time before receiving our keys. While I was waiting, I also overheard several other guests experiencing issues during the check-in process. During our stay, the campground Wi-Fi was unreliable and frequently unavailable. We later received an email notifying guests that the Wi-Fi was down and that the camp store would also not be open. While I understand that technical issues can occur, this was another inconvenience that affected our experience. Additionally, one of the amenities that influenced our decision to stay at your campground was the lake, which is advertised on your website as a place where guests can enjoy swimming, fishing, and kayaking. Unfortunately, the condition of the lake did not match the expectations created by your website. It appeared stagnant and uninviting, and we did not feel comfortable swimming or otherwise using an amenity that was prominently advertised as a highlight of the campground. As a result, one of the features we were most looking forward to enjoying during our stay was effectively unavailable to our family. The most significant issue occurred on the evening of July 2. Our cabin became extremely hot and would not cool down despite the air conditioner running continuously, both ceiling fans operating, and two additional fans that we had brought ourselves. The main bedroom and loft were especially unbearable. Our children were visibly sweating, and the temperature inside the cabin was so uncomfortable that it was impossible to sleep. We called twice before maintenance arrived. The maintenance employee immediately commented that the cabin felt "disgusting" due to the heat and discovered that the air conditioning unit had frozen over. He explained that several cabins were experiencing the same issue that day and told us the campground had received a shipment of portable air conditioners and fans to distribute to affected cabins. Unfortunately, by the time he reached us, none remained available. He sincerely apologized and explained there was nothing further he could do other than have us turn the unit off to allow it to thaw. As a result, our children were unable to get to sleep until after midnight, and the main bedroom did not reach a reasonable temperature until approximately 3:00 a.m. We essentially lost an entire night's rest during what should have been the final evening of our vacation. While we understand that isolated issues can happen, the combination of the delayed check-in, poor communication, unreliable Wi-Fi, the unexpected closure of the camp store, amenities that did not match how they were advertised, and most importantly the failure of the air conditioning during extremely warm weather made this stay far below the standard we expected. These were not minor inconveniences--they substantially affected our family's comfort and enjoyment throughout the trip. Emailed several times with no response from anyone at Jellystone. Do not go!!

The cabin was clean and we were able to get some nice weather for a swim and the basketball court. I love the fire pit outside of the cabins we made fresh snores they were so yummy and the kids had so much fun doing so, you can buy wood right at the store on the campsite which was convenient I also grabbed some eggs for breakfast in the morning. We didn't get to enjoy mini golf but we seen it and it looked fun. Overall great experience and we will be back!
