I am a single mom and have been taking my children and grandchildren here for about 20 years. It is a great place to go if you want to show your children what real camping is like. I don't know how it can be described as a terrible place since going camping is enjoying the outdoors and roughing it! The campsites are right on the river. You can watch the trout and even catch them in your hand. The restrooms and showers are in the woods but you do have running warm water and toilet paper. The swimming pool is small but a nice treat when you are supposed to be "camping". There is a state park with a beautiful lake and boat rentals about 5 minutes up the road. Many hiking trails to the falls. A nice petting zoo in Thurmont. The campsite has been run by a family that lives at the site. Very nice regular people. You want to go camping this is a nice place. You want to go cushy camping stay at a Hilton camp ground.
