I didn’t realize you had to pay extra to do the slides and I’m pretty sure the cabin was moldy and not very clean. The big pool smelled of urine and the one slide was peeling very badly. I don’t think we will be staying again however, the shuttle service to holiday world was awesome.

The room was clean enough. If you look you could find discrepancies. Since the person before you is in charge of sweeping and washing dishes. Everyone’s standards aren’t the same. That said the fitted sheet and pillowcases provided were clean. The shower curtain not going the width of bathtub was comical. Grounds and staff excellent. Shuttle to Holiday World very convenient. I would for sure stay again!

Best place to stay in the area!

This is the best place to stay in the area! Fun atmosphere w/ other campers...golf carts, events, things to do in the park, a lake, and the water slides were great! Cute cabins, shuttle to Holiday World was extremely convenient. Definitely better than any nearby hotels (have stayed in a couple different hotels in the area and they are yucky). Downsides are minimum 2-night stay and have to bring all linens & most kitchen stuffs but overall this place is a winner.

Booked the cottage . Loved it. There were a few issues. Stove did not work. Cabinet molding was falling off the very top of the pantry cabinet. One light bulb in the bathroom was burnt out. The TV remote in the bedroom did not work the TV. The sign on the wall asks you to sweep. There was only a dust pan and no broom in the room. These were minor nuisances that needed addressed. The only real annoying one was the TV remote for my granddaughter to relax in bed and watch cartoons and the stove that wasn’t working. Overall the place is a lot of fun and I recommend going. There are several amenities that are wonderful. The staff is friendly and they led us to our cottage so we knew exactly where we were going. I really appreciated that. Thank you.

l don’t want this to be a full on negative review. We did appreciate the shuttle services to and from holiday worlds front gates & the appliances and utensils available in the cabin, as well as the air conditioning in the cabin…but The cleanliness of the cabin was very poor. we pulled the couch over and there were old wrappers, glow sticks, hair balls and more all beneath. I had to wipe the fridge off before placing anything on top, as there was a 1/2 inch of dust. The bathroom door wouldn’t lock and had to be slammed to shut. The cable was static in the bedroom, my husband is a maintenance man and couldn’t fix it because it wasn’t a connection issue, it was the cable wire itself. The mattress’s are probably the worst i have ever slept on! My back and hip were killing me, i tossed and turned all night. The mattress had no give, like sleeping on a plank & it literally sits on top of a plank of wood. They took all of the screening and the screen doors off of the porch. The dishes are washed by the guests, so you have to ensure that they are clean (as some of them were not). & I know it’s a campground so wifi is a luxury, but just a warning not to expect any cell service & the wifi is minimal at best! There are pros and cons & i love the atmosphere, but to pay over 300$ a night for a cabin , i would except a better mattress at best.

Absolutely loved staying here! Property was clean and beds were comfortable. Location was great and loved all the activities on site!! Only thing for improvement would be to have the cabin slightly better stocked in the kitchen or provide that info when booking. We didn’t know there were no towels or blankets provided. Bare bones on dishes and no large skillet to even cook with. We ended up spending quite a bit of money unnecessarily at Walmart when we could have packed those items. I will still definitely be back and recommend this place to others! I’ll just include that heads up. Beautiful place all around!

Stayed in a cabin. Great atmosphere. Staff super friendly. Read the fine print - no linens or towels provided! Luckily there is a Dollar General Store across from the campgrounds.

There is so much to do at the campground, mini golf, Gem mining, pools, water slides, several basketball courts and playgrounds. Let's not forget the arcade. The cabins are perfect for families. You are close to your neighbors, but we are all there for 1 reason our kids to have an awesome time. We took chalk with us and had all the neighbors and people driving by sign the street and the parade on a Tuesday was awesome. The food at the little snack kitchen was very good. Yes, this place can be expensive but the memories you create are for a lifetime.

Would be 5 stars, but it was rather pricey for the actual cottage. If you're going to stay for a week, it might be worth it, but if you're just going for the weekend to visit Holiday World, it would be better to just stay in Ferdinand and save $100+ dollars.

Clean cabins. Attentive staff. Clean easy to use laundramat. Arcade was nice. So cool they have arts and crafts along with other activities. The kids really loved the pool and water slides! We enjoyed seeing the decorated golf carts each night. Very family friendly campground. 5 stars!!

The rooms were pretty clean. I questioned whether the floor had been mopped. The doors didn’t lock on the bathroom or the bedrooms in our cabin. They don’t furnish towels or bedding. The fitted sheet that they do, furnish, would not stay on the bed it was so cheap and had no elasticity to it. Otherwise, the grounds were clean and we enjoyed our time there. Maybe be slightly overpriced though for the cottages.

The floors were dirty when we arrived. Not only needing swept but also mopping.

We liked the water area, the grounds were nice and since we were going to holiday world multiple days the free shuttle was great! However, the cottage we stayed in was dirty had not been cleaned and I did not realize how dirty it was until we swept and cleaned up per the instructions on the wall. There was so much per hair on the beds and the floors and we didn't have pets. If your going to camp here in your own camper go for it! But in my opinion skip the cottages.
