We arrived during a storm, and the primary electrical service line was torn down by a large branch, causing electric to be out for a day. We left and went to Tom Sawyer Campground near the Mississippi river. We were promply given a refund Nice pool, nice trees, level sites, breakfasts, nice store. The only downgrades are the gravel roads and NO cable TV available. The freeway noise is fairly loud, but livable.

We called late to see if they had an overnight site, and they had 3 left. The girl that answered was very nice, and put our site number and info in an envelope on the bulletin board for us as we were arriving late. Watch out for the Summer mosquitos during the rainy season. The sites are RIGHT next to the Mississippi river, and it's really nice to watch the tugboats push the barges down the river. Make sure you use a EMS system, as the voltage fluxuates constantly, as our Progressive Portable EMS system shut our electric off several times during the night due to extremely high voltage. The roads are gravel, there is no pool, hobos living near the entrance, and there is very muddy and water filled holes along the roads.

Great place to pull off the freeway, and this place is close to a 10. The reason it's not, is that it's close to the freeway/noise, and the pull through sites are all gravel. Other than the two above negatives, there are MANY positives....cable, wifi, pool, hot tub, pancake breakfasts EVERY morning, Ice cream social EVERY evening, nice store, clean grounds, spotless bathrooms, nice mowed lawns, excellent doggy area, easy in and easy out.

One thing that is really nice about this campground is the covered picnic tables/breakfast areas at each campsite. These are very handy during the frequent rain storms. Our site was very private and quiet. The park was not full when we stayed here, and the pool was huge and not crowded at all. The roads are paved, but very hilly and some of the sites wouldn't be condusive to big DP's. The wifi was excellent, and the voltage at the 50 amp power pole was very steady at 120 volts. They have new management, and have added breakfast and dinner with different menus each night. They also have pizza delivered to your site, and provide free shuttle to Silver Dollar City which is only 1.3 miles away. If you enjoy a "State Park" type atmosphere with trees and privacy, this is your place.

Nice level sites, 50 amp service, no trees, HOT in the Summer, great free shuttle to the casino/buffet, nice smaller pool, all pull thru sites. They also give you two free breakfast buffet coupons for the buffet at the casino across the street. Overall, not bad for $27!

This used to be a "10" park, but has gone downhill the last several years. There are A LOT of "cabins" for sale here, the pool is in disrepair, as are the hot tubs. The water in the hot tub and pools are dirty...always the case when we stay there. They need to remove all the "training cables" from all the trees that were installed when they planted the trees 10 years ago as they are choking the tree trunks with these wires, as a lot of them are dying because of the wires wrapped around the trunks. The "store" is nonexistent. The good things about this park is....they are open year 'round, and are the only park within 50 miles, the pads are really nice concrete and level, and there are no gravel roads internally.

The first day we used the pool, there was MOSS growing on the steps, and little swimming organisms. We quickly exited and only used the loungers.....the next day, the pool was "closed" due to the water being completely green and filthy. We saw and heard nobody trying to fix the problem. Honestly, this was the nastiest pool we have ever seen, and it wasn't just a one time thing....we have been here before and it was just as filthy. None of the "workkampers know much about pool maintenance. Cons of the park: 1. gravel/dirt roads and dusty 2. the sewer connection is VERY far from the electrical and water hookups 3. They advertise and own TWO hot tubs, but then neither one works. 4. The entrance looks like a junkyard. 5. unfriendly "workkampers" who don't tell you about any activities (including the breakfasts) Pros of the park: 1. It's close to Fort Collins and CSU 2. They have breakfasts and some dinners served on-site. 3. Clean restrooms 4. Level cement pads.

Only reason this park isn't a "10" is because there is no pool. Beautiful landscaping, huge cement pads and covered awnings with table and chairs, storage sheds at each site that you can lock up your bikes in. Nice clean hot tub, huge indoor and outdoor kitchens for groups. They also have a really nice large activity room with various games set up, two large big screen tvs. Very friendly owners on-site, and call you by name when they see you.

Great place to stopover! Nice clean pool, daily breakfast, nice ice cream social. Big level sites. One of the better KOA's, and it shows!
