Great facility with multiple pools, lots of activities, and staff makes sure it does not get too wild. Facilities are kept immaculate, all roads paved. Good mix of seasonal and overnite guests....people are friendly. Within easy walking/biking distance of beach area, there is also a trolley service for only $1 each way. Close by well equipped market with good meats... More

My family and I just returned home from spending a long weekend at Powderhorn. It's now off season so some of the ammenities were unavailable. We always seem to forget something so having a camp store is kind of a must for us, but it was closed for the season. Otherwise, We were very happy with our stay. The staff... More

I called them 4 to 5 days ahead. The kept $20 of our money. That was fine but we live 3000 miles away and they sent me a coupon good... More

We just recently returned from a week long tenting stay and we absolutely loved it. We couldn't believe how quiet the campground was a night time. We were in a tent in pine grove near the playground. The kids had plenty to do there. The only downfall is they charge extra for all of the activities including mini golf. My... More

They took a 50% deposit. 12.5 days before trip, family member diagnosed with cancer. Tried to cancel and get refund. Offered doctors letter. They were miserable. Told me only give a credit to use within next year because we were 30 hours late. Needed 14 days notice. No exceptions and just too bad. Bad policies. Avoid at all costs

Just returned from a week at Powder Horn Family Campground. While the campground is very clean and the 3 pools were great for the kids as it was extremely hot. We were disappointed with the rates. Apparently a family is two adults and no children. Upon check in felt like you were emptying your wallet. Extra fee for each of... More
