One of the biggest highlights here—especially for families—is the outdoor pool. After a morning of setting up camp or exploring the area, the pool becomes the natural hangout spot. Kids can burn off energy while parents relax nearby, and it adds a fun “mini-vacation” vibe that you don’t always get at typical campgrounds.

Beyond the pool, one of the selling features for our family - the resort leans into family-friendly amenities. There are open spaces for games, spots where kids can ride bikes around safely, and plenty of room for classic camping activities:

  • Jumping Pillow

  • Playgrounds

  • Pickleball Court

  • Indoor Games Room

  • Sandy Beach with non-motorized activities

  • Camp store

Because it’s so close to the city, you don’t have to commit to a long weekend or pack like you’re heading into the wilderness for a week. Even a short overnight stay can feel like a proper break from the daily routine.
