Hi Paul & Family, Thank you so much for the kind review, it actually brought tears to my eyes. Nick & I couldn't have expected better guests than you and your family, you're all so kind, sweet and respectful, the world needs more people like you, it would be a much better place. I will show this to the campground owners and neighbors, they will be appreciative. We'd love to have you back sometime, please keep in touch and take care of yourselves and enjoy the summer. Nick & Angie

Boater paradise

We love camping & boating on the Muskingum & Ohio rivers. This was the best of both worlds. We enjoyed camping in a quiet & cozy campground & RV. The camper was clean and had all the essentials covered. Owners were able to secure dock space for us and our boat was a stones throw away. We enjoyed our days on the water and our camping retreat at night. It was perfect! We will definitely be returning. Owners were very friendly & helpful. If you enjoy camping and boating (like we do) it is the perfect destination.
