When booking my boyfriends and I 2nd year anniversary, I wanted somewhere where we can just relax and be secluded. It was about a 4 hour drive, so booking a place without knowing what we were getting into was a little nerve wracking.. When we first arrived, it was late so they left the key in the door. I did...

When we arrived to our cottage I was diappointed as it had a "view" of the water but there were several other cottages in front of us. The space that our cottage was on was very small, enough room to park, then a picnic table and fire circle on the side. The front steps ended basically on the road. After... More

Awesome place to go! Beautiful Grounds. Went during the off season and was very quite and nice. We also went horseback riding nearby which was very fun. The local people are very nice and the food is great.The cabins were very spacious and had a mini kitchen area. My only negative things were there were tons of spider in our... More

Last weekend we were out for a snowmobiling day trip. After riding we were heading out of town when our tow vehicle broke down. No hotels in area had vacancy. Old Forge Camping Resort came to the rescue providing a cabin and linens for an overnight stay. This weekend we decided to come snowmobiling with friends and had such a... More

We have been at Old Forge Camping Resort several times. Each time is different. The first time we were there was the first time we experienced bears. We grilled out for dinner one night and I cooked cornish game hens lovingly on the grill when the call went out "bears in the camp"....I planned my escape but also knew those... More

Just returned from a 4 night stay at the Old Forge Camping resort. We had a lakefront site, which is near the area where other posters claimed that pillaging bears literally imprisoned them in thier cabins. We didn't see any activity even close to that. One bear destroyed a full garbage can that was stupidly left out on the site... More

I have camped many times, and a bear sighting would not have been a problem. When the bear/s (a mother and 2 cubs and a very large male) are at your cabin so much that you can't let your small children play in your own site, because the bears are coming by morning, noon, dusk, and night, when you can't...

Before we could even unpack the car other cabins were yelling because a bear started charging thru the campground, (we were there not even 10 minutes ) this was at 2:10 pm . So we figure no big deal just a bear passing thru. Um not quite. We had a great time at Water Safari it is an awesome place... More
