Candy Hill Campground in the United States

It's difficult to even start describing our experience... We were at the property for two months in September 2022, and got a firsthand view of how the proprietor manages the place. He's impolite and disrespectful to his patrons, seemingly on a power high. He and a handful of his staff will shout at you in a heartbeat if you exceed 5 mph within the camping area. It's absurd. You're required to be accompanied in and out of the property upon arrival and departure. We checked out early due to these issues, and one of the staff members was shocked that we were leaving without informing the proprietor. A friend of mine visited one day and drove onto the property before we arrived. The proprietor and his group pursued my friend and his young daughter, cornering their car with their golf carts. They then proceeded to scold the visitor and his daughter for not registering at the office. Although my friend was at fault, the proprietor's reaction was excessive. He then directed my friend to follow him back to the office. My friend apologized and left the park out of concern for his daughter's safety. Upon my arrival, I was reprimanded for my friend's visit and the proprietor threatened to deny my stay if that's the "type of friends" I have. It was unbelievable! On several other instances, I witnessed the proprietor belittling various campers as they were attempting to park their vehicles. His customer service is appalling! It's unclear why he behaves this way, as the park has potential, but he needs to EXIT THE INDUSTRY and let someone else take the reins. Regarding the lots, a few are concrete pads and are flat. However, most of the lots in the park are grass or gravel and are NOT FLAT. Our lot had a malfunctioning sewer connection. The lots are excessively priced for what they offer. I could elaborate more on this place, but suffice to say that until the proprietor learns to respect his patrons, I

Indeed, there is a significant amount of traffic noise. The laundry amenities are not up to par, with a substantial number of the dryers being out of order. The water supply is cut off when the temperature drops below 36 degrees. Despite what your phone's weather app might indicate, if their thermometer reads 34 degrees, they will physically lock the water supply. Don't expect any assistance in temporarily restoring the water supply for your RV. The management enforces a plethora of regulations and will not hesitate to confront you about any perceived infractions.

While en route to Florida, we made a brief stopover at this conveniently located site just off the highway. Our stay, though short, left us quite impressed! The campsite was expansive and picturesque, complete with a new, large fire pit. The washrooms were clean and comfortably heated. It seemed like the perfect place to spend a few days, especially for those with children. As for the staff, I found them to be pleasant and accommodating. I interacted with three different individuals - one for booking, another during check-in, and a third who guided us to our spot and assisted with parking. All were quite friendly and helpful. I'm uncertain about the negative review concerning the staff. Perhaps the issue wasn't with them.

About our only complaint was the gravel pad. Wish it was cement. The pool was nice, kids loved the arcade and bike rentals. The site we got was situated awkwardly and we couldn’t park right in front of it. It was on a dead end street which made it kind of a pain to get into and out of but we made it work. The free Wi-Fi was worthless so we had to upgrade and it worked fine for working and school. Staff is a little overbearing. Like they need a hobby other than watching us! 😆 We full time and have never seen anywhere like it but we didn’t have any real issues.

The double wide concrete pad was as good as I have ever seen but was a little close to the neighboring site. It appears that the sites on this row had been recently updated, complete with a propane grill, glass top table and fire pit though we didn’t use them. There were various other sites available which appeared to be nice as well. The campground runs a tight ship keeping an eye on visitors. We were visiting friends in the area who came to pick us up for the day. They were interrogated on their arrival as to their intentions. I guess this keeps the riff raff out. I had a LP tank filled while there and found the price to be fair. (Just stay behind the blue line.) I would stay here again.
