We were looking forward to a Friday night fish fry, but were a bit disappointed. First, they forgot about our table and apparently didn't assign us a server so we waited 10 minutes or so before that was sorted out. The table itself was good, by a window, but the floor under it was gross, with food and crayons and stuff. They sprayed the table top with bleach before seating us, if you can believe that, yum. The food was passable but bland. The salad bar was super-unlit, perhaps so you didn't notice how the salad stuff was getting mixed together. The old fashioneds were good. I liked the clam chowder although it was a little salty. After our comments they did try to accommodate us a little. Next time I think we will try another place for fish fry. read more

The service was fast and very friendly! The restaurant is on Lake Wisconsin with great views!! The place was clean including the bathroom. I got the unlimited soup and salad bar. The chicken noodle soup was good. They didn't skimp on the ingredients. The salad bar was fine. Nothing special. Some of the ingredients tasted like they had been refrigerated for quite awhile. Most notably the raw broccoli. Otherwise, it was fine. There were lots of choices to build a salad. My husband had the loaded grilled cheese and really liked it. It was very cheesy! read more

This campground was amazing. We stayed over Labor Day weekend and enjoyed it so much we booked for next year before leaving. They have a bar/restaurant, little store, canoeing, kayaking, park, playground, clean bathroom and shower house, pickle ball, miniature golf and live music and fireworks. Right next door there is Liza's lagoon with a jumping pillow and wibits. Just a mile down the road was a dog park. Needless to say we were so busy during the day we slept great each night. The restaurant had great food, it was a little busier than expected but I'm sure that had to do with the fish fry going on. The campground was very well run, quiet time at 10pm and the drive the campground to check! Unfortunately, I was so busy making memories I have no pictures to share. read more

Located on the Wisconsin River, it's a casual restaurant with a River view. Locals seem to gather here to enjoy the beer and food. We each had a Ribeye Steak, which was cooked nicely. I had a baked potato while my son had mashed potatoes. If you're looking to get stuffed, get the mashed as the amount looked enormous. For the side salad, you get one trip to the salad bar which had enough choices to make most people happy. We sat at the bar and received great service from the bartender. I had several of the special Pink Drink (for $4 per drink, why wouldn't you?) and it was quite refreshing. All in all, it was a really pleasant dinner. read more

Service was pretty good. The food was pretty good but not outstanding. I've eaten hear a cpl of times and will be back again.

This is a great spot for lunch or dinner. Beautiful view of the river, good variety on the menu, very reasonable prices for both the food and the drinks. We go here often! read more

I have camped here several times. I just finished a three night stay there. They responded to an issue I had immediately and were very helpful. They have a great bar there along with reasonably priced food and a great view. A very nice pool and kid friendly staff. One of my favorite places to stay. read more

Went on a weekday around noon. Modestly busy for an overcast day. Setting is beautiful along the Wisconsin River. We had a window seat facing the water. Lunch was ok. Nothing special. Our order was fairly simple. Cheeseburger with fries, chicken salad roll up, fish sandwich and one person went to the salad/soup bar. Burger was nicely prepared medium on a generous bun with a pickle spear. Fries were average. Chicken salad roll up was was large. Friend took half home with her. Fish sandwich was average. Two pieces of deep fried haddock on a toasted bun with fries. The salad bar and soup selection were good. Wifey did a one trip and didn't comment about there being anything special on it. Bottom line ... the food was ok. Nothing special. View of the river was very nice, but the dining area was cold. Service was better than average. Will go back during the summer months to enjoy the scenery. read more

This place is a hidden gem. After visiting the house on the rock, we were looking for a place in Spring Green to eat, and I'm so glad we stopped here. It's tucked away in a campground, but you can't beat the view, the food and drinks are good and the price is affordable. 8 people with food and drinks.. less than $150. This place was all around amazing. read more

Wisconsin Riverside Resort Inc - Drink bucket only $12 and so dang delicious! (Tipsy Canoe) - Campgrounds Near Me - Spring Green, Wisconsin

We came to Spring Green to visit house on the rock. With limited choices of places for dinner, we chose this place because it was on the river. I was pleasantly surprised at the size and layout of the restaurant and bar. We chose to sit outside and the view did not disappoint. It was beautiful. The menu has a wide variety to choose from. I started with a drink bucket called "the bobber" it was delicious! We ordered gouda bites and they were so good! Try these for sure! I got the Friday night fried fish, it was decent, but my husband's fish tacos were amazing. I would recommend this restaurant for dinner for sure! read more

This is our second time visiting and will not return.We gave this river side dumpster fire a second chance and receives a thumbs down. We brought our own kayaks with us and wanted to see if we could pay the Riverside Resort outfit to give us a ride upstream and bring our kayaks. This was mid week and there were about 10-15 campers in the entire campgound and about half were unoccupied. So, paying them to give us a ride would be more profitable than no business at all. We called the camp office and Kerri W. was short, rude, and extremly unhelpful from her first hello. When we asked about a ride she kept repeating ,"you have to rent from us." No matter what we asked, that was her response. We asked if there was a Uber in town and was told no. After one phone call we found there is an Uber driver in town as well as other services that can provide rides. While we were in the camp office we also asked for the Wi-Fi password. It is clearly advertised that there is Wi-Fi. She told us that there was no password, you could just get on, and was sketchy at best. If you really want on you have to come up to the store. That again is bunk! Funny story-we get everything set up for our kayak trip and are finally heading out only to discover that we left our paddles and life jackets at home. So, we canceled our ride with our driver and had to walk back into the camp store with our tail between our legs to rent from Riverside Resort. When getting our trip set up with Carrie W. ,she asked my husband a few times, "So, what did we learn today?" We are not the children that she works with at the local school! What we did learn was that she does not have very good people skills/customer service skills, nor is she willing to help others. Remind you, this is mid week and hardly a camped in the campground. The gentleman who took us out to the launch was very nice and helpful and could hold a conversation. They kayaks were crap! No backing or little if that, and the paddles were missing the guards. I am all for getting wet, but come on! We paid for kayaks at a "resort" and they were in crap shape. The equipment was complete garbage for being at a resort. Once we got back to camp we went up to the shower house to find that you have to pay $1.00 to start the shower and have to keep feeding quarters to keep it going. My husband got his shower going, added a quarter, then quit moments after. He then had to add another dollar to get the shower going again. I had forgotten about paying for showers from last year and luckily had change. I can go to most campgrounds and not pay for a shower. I felt like I was in the 80's camping. At what point will this resort put money into their camp ground? There is something to be said for just showering in your own camper! This campground is not a resort by any means. It just happens to be by water but has not had any updates since the 80's. There are much nicer resorts than this. This campground is full this evening, which is now Saturday, and have to remember why we camp. 1st, to enjoy those who we are with and 2nd, to be ok roughing it a little. It is ok to waste money to be with family. ;) OVERALL---Great setting, overpriced food and drinks, outdated campground, pool, putt putt.... Which is a perfect place to blow out an ankle for young and old. This mini golf is a lawsuit waiting to happen. Happy camping, bring your bring your credit card, tons of quarters, and Tylenol to deal with Kerri in the camp store. read more

Recently my family of 6 booked an overnight canoe trip with a different company in Arena. After getting stuck in Chicago traffic, we arrived 40 minutes late and the other company refused to take us out. Luckily , a gas station recommended this place to us. When we arrived, they were done with trips for the day but went out of their way to make an exception for us. The owner knew we were traveling with many small children And explained each of the trips and the pros cons for each one. We decided to take a shorter trip which ended up being perfect. They took the time to fit each child with an appropriate life vest , two young guys pulled up to our car and loaded all our gear for us into the van. Once at the launch site, they unloaded our gear for us. They were extremely helpful . I like that the trip ends at your car. It was easy to find the location at the end of the trip. The campground looked clean, had a nice pool with splash zone. The camp store had a great assortment of products including ice and firewood. I would absolutely return . read more

We rented tubes from them to go down the Wisconsin river. They are very organized and helpful. The guy who drove us to the dropoff point could have been a bit more forthcoming with details but we figured it out. When we finished , there was live music outside in the yard/patio. read more

This is our second time here. Overall, we like it. Both times have been weekdays and around the time school starts, so not busy. Here are the things I'm not too keen on; the pull through 50 amp sites are too small for my liking. We won't have a fire in the fire pit because it's too close to the slide on our fifth wheel; the Wi-Fi absolutely sucks; the camp info states they get local channels on TV - nope; our site needed to be mowed as grass was about 6 inches, the pull through spots are pretty chewed up (grass, but big bare spots). The good; the spots are pretty level; the office is manned until 9 pm unless it's slow; the restaurant seems fair - we stopped in for a beer; the pool and mini-golf are well attended, so they must be okay; we can see a piece of the Wisconsin River from our site; the location is handy for the Frank Lloyd Wright Trail and surrounding. We will likely stay here again. Need to get a Wi-Fi booster before we do. read more

We have been coming here for years. Always friendly staff and always a relaxing hassle free stay.

We attended the highly advertised Labor Day celebration. We were treated extremely poorly by an overwhelmed staff. We arrived at 6:30 and were told it was a 2 hour + wait. We waited a bit, only to see the hostess seat people continously after we arrived. I walked around and saw at least 6 different tables that were empty, dirty, with checks on them. I asked if we could sit there? Was told no, that we had to find somewhere outside to be and fend for ourselves!!! I had my handicapped 80 yr old mother with me, in a wheelchair, and I couldn't believe the complete disregard for their customers. We left and will not ever be returning!!! I left a message regarding this on their Facebook page and of course it was deleted by the owners!!! DO NOT RECOMMEND!!! read more

We have eaten here 3 times and 2 of the times we had to wait an hour. For has been ok but the service and correct orders have been a problem. First time one of us did not get there dinner. They forgot to enter it. This last time they gave 1/2 our food to another table so they had to remake it but the ones they did not serve sat under the heat lamps for a 1/2 hour. read more

Nice fall weekend. Disappointed for the folks in sites 2 and 4. Power pedestals had a ground fault (showing no shore power). Both were brand new coaches (not related to each other either). Trouble was reported numerous times to staff. Kept being told that all was fine. Had both owners questioning their Transfer Switches. Let them both plug into our ped and trouble cleared. On the way out they pulled into vacated spots and all worked fine. Two nights with no power and no apologies . Hope the next time is a better experience. read more

Everything was great except we are here on Labor Day expecting their lagoon to be open (like listed) and it is closed with people (who were told from front desk is the owners having a party). Would be nice to use all amenities, especially for when they are listed as open on signs. read more

Review for tubing only. We checked the website and called before arriving to be sure that tubing was available. $16 per tube, all tubes, even cooler tubes and if you're a frequent tuber these are the black tubes with covers not the fancy ones with cup holders and handles. They shuttle whenever they have people for trips to drop sites. There are two sites for either a 2 hour or 3 hour tube trip. We opted for the 2 hour because we knew we could extend the trip by stopping at the many sand bars on the river. Which you are allowed to do on any of the trips. The tubes are yours for the day, you just need to be back before dark. Everything was pretty straightforward and the staff was helpful and explained that once on the river and under the bridge we should stay to the right. We were the only ones going out at that time so we had the shuttle to ourselves. The shuttle driver helps you with tubes and explains again about the bridge and staying to the right. After that you're on your own and can embark on your river adventure. I've tubed some other rivers in the state and I'd have to say this was one of the calmest. The whole river was very sandy and shallow. The abundance of sand bars is great. So many places to stop and enjoy your day. It was also so quiet. Sure there were others enjoying the river tubing, canoeing and kayaking. But there weren't a bunch of rowdy drunks clogging the river and making the experience less than desirable. Upon return to the resort the water was a little deeper and the current a little stronger so be mindful you or your tubes don't get swept away at the end of your trip. A few other things to note. The camp shop where you check-in only had a bathroom, no changing area or shower to rinse off. I didn't ask if one was available but that might be something people might be interested in. Since this is also a campground there is a bar and restaurant to patronize before or after tubing. We didn't on this trip but I think that's a nice amenity in case you're in the mood to dine and imbibe. Most importantly, credit cards accepted! Overall great tubing experience. Would recommend for others. read more

Wisconsin Riverside Resort Inc - Great spot for tubing! - Campgrounds Near Me - Spring Green, Wisconsin

The resort facilities themselves aren't bad, but our interactions with the staff and tubing were horrible after they put us in danger. We stayed at this resort for a friend's 30th birthday party. Resort pros/cons: + Not too far from Madison + Drive-in tent sites + Port-a-potties sprinkled throughout the sites + a bathhouse with showers/running water + Walkable to the on-site bar and restaurant + Small general store + In-house shuttle to tubing site - No shade on the sites - Loud after hours - Tons of mosquitos - Firewood purchased was waterlogged - Pricy - Poor cell data reception - Horrible customer service My main issue was that our group was sent out into an electrical storm even after we inquired about the safety of going onto the river. There had been some drizzle in the morning, but it was warm and we were planning on getting wet anyway. Before setting out, though, we asked the staff to check the radar. They told us that we'd be fine. Within ten minutes of being on the river it was clear we were not. We could see lightning strikes not too far out. We stopped on a sandbar and weighed our options. The river was too strong to go back upstream, the sandbar was in the middle of the river, and the tree-lined shore didn't have a place to pull ourselves up/the trees were taller than anything around us. We decided to keep moving, but ended up pulling back up onto the next sandbar as the lightning got worse and the temperature continued to plummet. We continued to debate what to do, and as we did we noticed that the girls in our party had strands of our hair standing on end even though we were soaked. We knew this wasn't a good sign, and later found out that's what happens before you're struck by lightning. Great! One person brought their phone for emergencies, so we called the resort and asked them to pick us up. We assumed that they had a rescue boat in case something happened like an injury, popped tube, or a sudden storm. Nope! They said they could pick us up about a mile down the river, but we'd have to float another 30+ minutes to get there. We had no choice and figured moving was probably better than being sitting ducks on the sand bar. What was supposed to be a fun and relaxing afternoon turned into panic, crying, active paddling, and scrambling to get in and out of the tubes as we hit low points in the river and had to drag our ten or so tethered tubes. I'm generally calm in crisis situations but even I was concerned that we might not make it off the river. When we got back to the resort we inquired about a partial refund, but they told us that since we had gotten in the water it was non-refundable. They were also very unsympathetic and acted like we were trying to scam them. If they had been honest/more mindful of the radar, we would have skipped tubing or just gone the next morning when it was clear and sunny. I don't think any of us are likely to return; arguments about their refund policy aside, none of us felt safe knowing that they'd let us get into that situation in the first place and that they have no ability to assist people who run into trouble on the water. read more

We camped here with 4 other couples all in large 40' to 45' RVs. All kinds of camping equipment is allowed. We had a 42 foot RV on one side of us and a tent on the other. We had a great time, regardless of the weather. There are many activites in the area and several places to go for "site seeing". The campground has mini golf, pool & water park and access to tubing on the river, there is something for everyone. Keep in mind, activities on the water can be dangerous and your safety is up to you! It really is up to you to decide if the weather is good enough to be on the river. No one is going to make you do it. Sites are a decent size, each wih a picnic table but no shade. You are allowed to bring dining tents, "Easy Ups" and the like to make your own shade. The park was clean, we found the staff pleasant-from the office personal to the wait staff in the restaurant. Surprisingly, the food was very good! This is not just a campground restaurant but serves the entire community. The water pressure was decent, the grass cut, there is a fire ring at each site, & the campstore had a good selection, tho there is a full grocery store not far. There is no trash pickup but several dumpsters conveniently located near the exit. The only problem we had was the mosquitos! It rained a good part of the weekend and they were relentless! Apparently the campground doesnt spray for bugs. My advice, bring repellent. read more

WRR is about a 45-minute drive west of Madison. While it isn't extraordinarily far, it is a little too far a trip to make frequently. That being said, I would also never have chosen this particular location for tubing. I went with a group of nine other people. Tube rentals are $15/each, and if you are planning to bring a large cooler, be prepared to pay for a separate tube for it. After we paid for our tubes, a shuttle drove us from the resort to a starting point about a 5 minute drive away. I believe that you can choose to do either a 3 hour or 6 hour float, and they will drive you to a starting point that will take you 3 or 6 hours to get back from. Overall I found the whole experience very relaxing. It is quite a scenic float all the way down to the finishing point. You are also encouraged to stop on sandbars along the way to take a break or picnic! I think that as a group we definitely felt like we could have been given clearer directions on how to get back to the site. Also, it would be nice if they cleaned out the docking area and made it stand out more as the finishing point. As we tried to get to shore, we found ourselves being pulled into branches of fallen trees. Since we had tied all our tubes together so we could float as a group, we got badly tangled in the branches. There was also no one at the finishing point to direct us or help us out of the water - it was very much an independent endeavor. All in all, it was a good experience, but I think that WRR can do a much better job in terms of customer service and customer safety. read more

We didn't stay at the campground, but rented a group of 10 canoes from this place pretty last minute for Labor Day weekend due to another vendor's mess-up. Not only accommodating, their set up for canoe launch and pick-up is top notch. Drop off is right by the car park, minimizing the hauling and packing of your gear and they pick you up the next day and load it all up for you. Easily accessible, people were super friendly and place is outfitted with plenty of bathrooms for changing, a bar and ice machine. It's like a little camping haven in the middle of Wisconsin (one of many, I'm sure). Set right on the Wisconsin river, it's a great start to any 15 mile float trip! Find yourself a sandbank and set up shop, you'll enjoy it. read more

I dont really write reviews but I have to give a big shoutout to Terry who went above and beyond! Accidentally left my camera at one location we stopped at while tubing down the river. He was nice enough to take us out on his boat to get it and drop us back at where we started! Totally deserves a raise! Overall our stay was awesome, very nice to have a restaurant, convenience store, and a pool! Tent sites are huuge! Would def recommend, thanks again Terry! read more

The food was very good and our server, although stressed, was very friendly. We arrived on an extremely busy afternoon and our server warned us that it could take 45-60 minutes to get our food. She suggested we add the soup/salad bar to tide us over (we were famished). Worked out well, and our food came out quicker than expected read more

I am going to be generous with the three stars. Had dinner on Friday which included a two piece fish dinner for approximately $10. We had drinks before our meal, OK for them. The meal was average, cole slaw no taste at all, very bland. The waitress was prompt except when we were done eating. Had to find her to get the bill. read more

This is a really neat place on the river. We've enjoyed cocktails and dining there many times - we live just a few miles away. This summer we called to find out if it would be OK to launch our own kayak and canoe upstream and land at their resort. We wanted to leave a vehicle at the resort, rent a tube and be taken upstream to our boats then float down to the resort. We were very happy to pay whatever they asked - and they gladly said this would be fine. We had an awesome day. Service great. The young man that drove us upstream was very polite. Yesterday we decided to do an end of summer repeat. We called in the morning, confirmed they'd be OK taking a single person with tube upstream. . . no problem they said. We loaded up, I dropped my wife and son and our canoe+kayak, at the hwy 14 launch, then drove to the resort. The ladies in the office were very friendly, told them what I was up to (100% transparent about what I was doing), I registered and paid. They asked if I wanted to borrow a piece of rope to tie their tube to my boats. . . I said no thanks. . .but thanks. They said it would be about 15min. I had a beer in the bar. It was about time to load up and I headed back to the office. There was a fellow there that wasn't present when I registered. He told me I couldn't land my personal boats at the resort, that I'd have to use the public ramp a mile upstream. He let me know I was taking advantage of their facilities, bending the rules, and I couldn't do that. What the heck??? I offered to rent a canoe or canoes (just pay for them, I didn't need the boats), and I also offered to pay a landing fee. I also said we'd done this before with no hassle, and we called earlier that day to confirm it was cool. . . no problems. He said that wasn't possible (Really??? I was there!!!) In the end he said I could do it just this one time, but it was clearly not what they wanted, and it was clear that they'd never tolerate it again. I was told that it wasn't possible that anyone there had told me that this would be OK. . . . He acted like I was trying to scam them somehow. The guy was obviously having a bad day or had bad experiences with someone else. It was a horrible customer service experience. Makes me sad because we really enjoyed this place. I guess we got the clear message about how much our patronage is appreciated. We'd planned to drink and eat at the end of our float, just like last time. And we periodically would stop here for fish or prime rib. . . . both are (were) good here. My wife, son and I are bummed. We really enjoyed this place, until yesterday. I went back to the launch where I'd left my son and wife, we paddled upstream for a few hours, had food and drinks at Trader's Bar and Grill's spot on the river. . . .they were much friendlier. We have a new solution to canoeing/drinking/eating on the river. Anyway - this is a really neat facility with a lot of potential but the customer service isn't where it needs to be. read more

There was some sort of mixup with my reservation that I made a month and a half in advance for our 10th wedding anniversary/July 4th. I originally booked a premium riverside site because there was no way I would stay in the other sprawling gravel lots or resident trailer park. But the resident trailer park is where they put us after saying I had made the reservation for June 1-5 instead of July 1-5. Whatever the case may be, the non-river site was worse than I thought it would be and the experience vindicated my fears with awful views of crammed trailers and tarp sheds next to a large bathroom. There are no 30 amp hookups, there was a yellow jacket nest in my electrical box and the water leaked from the spigot- something that I had not experienced anywhere else in 3 weeks of camping. That said, we spent 3 weeks traveling all across the country in roughly 10 different campgrounds and this was by far my least favorite. read more

I agree with the other reviews: 5 Star canoe outfitting operation and 1 Star camping operation. The camping experience was horrible. There is no exaggeration in the other reviews when they say loud, obnoxious drunks carrying on until dawn. Where's management? The new clubhouse is awesome with a nice restaurant, bar and patio. Unfortunately, it's like a diamond in a pile of dung. The owners need to decide who they want as clientele: families and responsible campers or twenty-somethings that trash the place and all around them. The clubhouse, pool and recreational facilities seems like foolish investments if they can' t manage the place properly (I hope their banker is reading this). read more

I disagree with the other reviewers. I've only been here twice, and it was pretty obvious to me from the getgo that this was not a 100% "family themed campground." Yes, there are families there, I saw the pool, clubhouse, and other rec facilities being used by families everyday, both years. I've seen families on the river tubing as well. I've seen families around fires at night, and I've seen families in the lodge eating and drinking. So to say it's not family friendly is just plain wrong. But, there are also younger campers there, who, in part like me, are there to get drunk and have a good time. If the management dislikes this, they sure haven't done ANYTHING about it any year I've been there. This leads me to believe that they don't really care too much about noise levels, I'd assume unless someone complains, which clearly people don't, or I wouldn't have heard loud techno music at 2am on Sunday morning. What this means, guys, is that Bob's Riverside Resort probably doesn't really mind this, and if you do, maybe you should go somewhere else to camp. I mean, it's not on state land or in a state park, and we're in WI, what did you expect? And, in both years I've been there, the 'loud' campers are usually stuck at the end of the loop in the camping area, as far as possible from everyone else. So...they are clearly able to manage the place properly. We were on a waiting list for tubes, there was so much demand. Sounds like they're running a tight ship to me. There are no animals around destroying your food at night, people come by to pick up trash, the portopotties are (really) some of the cleanest I've ever seen at a place like that, and all the while, families are all over the place during the day. Sounds like they've figured out how to appeal to both sides of the coin, despite what other reviewers say. And to be fair, I'm a rural kind of camper. I've done plenty of canoe and backpacking trips, and this type of car camping isn't really my thing. But, once a summer, it's a great time to go tubing and hang out around the fire. I love Bob's, and would gladly go back. If that sorta thing really bothers you, go to a state park, a campground that has 'family friendly' plastered all over the website, or better yet, just pony up and rent a cabin at a resort, rather than camping and expecting it to be as quiet as it would be in a home w the windows shut. The only complaint is the length of the river trip. You have the option of 1 or 2 miles from drop off point to the point you exit. It should be at least 3 miles. Current was faster in 2011 and we were done in about 2 hours, including sandbar stops. That's ridiculous. I also saw several DNR boats, with drug dogs. If DNR agents are basically laying in wait for people to come down the river, Bob's needs to alert people that the DNR will treat them like low hanging fruit, which they clearly were. The staff are friendly, the facilities are perfect for the price (really good, actually), and the location is lovely. I like Bob's and can't wait to go back. read more

Disclaimer: I've never been much of a camper. Camping: 1 star Went here for two nights of camping and a float trip. The campground was nothing more than a patch of grass and a fire pit. They do have porta potties scattered about and a larger restroom building. Neither of them was clean. It costs $22 a night for these amenities... If you are hoping for a full night of sleep then better hope you have good neighbors. We had a couple party campsites around us that ended at 4AM and started at 6AM. There is a bar on the grounds that was pretty popular. Float Trip: 4 stars They basically blind fold you and drive about 2 miles up the Wisconsin River into a forest path and dump you off with some tubes. Make sure order extra tubes to hold coolers and trash. I was expecting the float trip to be longer so make sure you stop at sandbars along the way. It was a fun time. read more

The park was big, so that was a plus. The staff was very unfriendly. The pool is not deep so a plus for people with small kids, but very small for the amount of spots they have. Playground was ok, mini golf was cute. Access to the river was not very good. The spots were very long and deep so that is a plus for anyone that is towing anything or has another vehicle with them. They have a serious any problem and need to treat them, there are any hills everywhere and their wi fi is terrible but that seems to be the case with a lot of RV parks. I don't know why this would be considered a resort? There were lots of tents, park Models and mobile homes so I don't understand the " resort"? Also if you have kids there is nothing to do in the town, no restaurants really, some small parks and some fishing. My husband and son had fun fishing. If you like canoeing there is a nice big river but other than that I think if you have a family I would pass on this place. read more

This resort is nothing like it is shown to be on their website. We spent 2 nights here last weekend (left a day/night early due to the horrible experience). -Parking was a nightmare. Who has ever heard of an RV park, that doesnt even have RV parking for when you check in? -The resort map on their website is very misleading, as their population easily tripled beyond the number of sites, due to the river excursions. --Stumbling, falling down drunk people at 6pm. This was not a single occasion, I have never seen so many people completely inibriated at such an early hour. This happened both on Saturday and on Sunday. -Dogs swimming in the pool. -Young children driving the golf carts without supervision. Apparently there is no policy against this. -Despite what their website states, there is no WiFi. I even called and verified before we left. -Bathroom facilities were disgusting! Yes, its camping. Yes, there are people coming in off the river, so I can expect the floor to be wet. However It is completely unacceptable for there to be poop on the toilet seats. Be sure to bring money for the pay (dirty) showers. -The picture of our camp site on the web site is completely false. It did not show the street light that hung over our trailer! -Two vehicles full of drunk people pulled up to the pool area at 2am on Saturday night. They then broke into the pool area and threw their drunk friends into the pool, smashing beer bottles along the way. They were parked and had their headlights shining 8 feet from our trailer. This went on for at least an hour. At no time did anyone from the resort come out. -After the first night, I went and complained. The "manager" I spoke with had the audacity to ask me if it was one specific person or site that was causing the issues. Either she has been trained to ignore the issues or she truly didnt care. THESE ISSUES WERE RESORT WIDE. Had she ever stepped outside, she would have seen this clearly. -The party went on and on, there were never any quiet hours implemented or observed. After we got home, I called again and asked to speak with a manager. Ended up speaking with the same girl who I complained to the first time. She again acted like these issues were not a problem and did nothing. (At this point I dont want my money back, but an "I'm sorry your experience was poor", would have gone a long way. CUSTOMER SERVICE HERE IS HORRIBLE. We have stayed at numerous parks over the years and this was by far the worst. If you are 21 and are looking to party, this is the place for you! (It was not appropriate for my 8 & 11 year old). read more

Once again, this resort and restaurant provided a great experience. End of the year camping for us and we opted to get our Saturday night meal in the restaurant. Awesome prime rib, cooked to order and swift service. The salad bar was full of many choices and soup as well. We enjoyed our dinner and thank the staff for doing a great job. read more
