We stayed at The Great Divide, formerly Green Valley Beach, for a month. From the first phone call to reserve until our departure, these are the nicest people you could ever hope for. The grounds are beautiful, pool is huge, lake is nice for small fishing with small boats available free of charge. The young men are so great with... More

Spent the weekend of June 8th at this campground for the first time and couldn't have been happier. The staff was friendly and helpful. The new owners are trying very hard to make improvements, which shows. Since the place was practically deserted, we had a whole section to ourselves, which was fantastic. The pool was heated and the planned activities... More

We spent Memorial Day weekend at this campground. It seems like ownership has changed hands very recently. The new owners are doing a nice job. The grounds were lovely and the staff we met quite friendly. We didn't attend any activities but two staffers led us to our spot, which was great because the place is large. Interesting layouts with... More

I have had the pleasure of spending lots of time at this campground and I have always found the employees as well as the owner to be very friendly, and accommodating. They do all kinds of events for family, and for the children. On on visit they had a pig roast and there was so much good food, another time... More

The wildlife is truely amazing along with the rustic setting of real camping in the woods and NOT in a parking lot like WALMART. The staff does NOT miss a beat when it... More

We stayed one night from Saturday to Sunday and we camped by tent. Upon arrival it looked like our choice of campgrounds was a mistake. The woman we check in with was not very nice - there are some confusing signs about where you are and are not allowed to park when you check in and flipped out on us... More

We came here because as much as we love camping, we hate weekend traffics and wanted something closer to home but outdoor for the kids. Our first night here, kids were excited to see Lama, rabbits, chicken, playground and clean pool! Naturally the kids can't wait till next morning when pool is open with lifeguard on duty. Shortly after we... More
