Customer Reviews
11/10 For our first visit to Cherry Grove over the 4th of a July. We were looking for a last minute cabin stay, close to home and Cherry Grove had a very affordable, available cabin for us. Upon arrival I noticed how clean, well maintained the grounds were and how friendly everyone was. The cabin was tidy, freshly cleaned with no hint of “camp” smell. The speed limit of 5mph is strictly enforced which eased some stress with our littles who are runners and like to roam and explore. We noticed how quiet the grounds were and I’ll be honest, I was a little nervous. Our 4yr old is autistic and our 3yr old is just loud. Between stimming and meltdowns, I was nervous there would be an issue. But the more we encountered campers and employees, our concern faded away. Everyone was so kind and friendly and the kids were more regulated with less noise. They even restricted fireworks on the premises and enforced quiet hours. We didn’t need to use headphones once! Cherry Grove is accidentally sensory friendly! This is a Campground designed for ALL families and I’ll be recommending them to everyone I know! We had an amazing time connecting and making memories with our kids and we’ll absolutely visit again.
We had a great time this past weekend. We went to try out our new RV. The new owners were very nice and everyone was friendly. Pull thur sites are level. Bathrooms are super clean. I would definitely recommend.
We have not stayed, but we have visited. THANK YOU so much for the nice lady who owns the place for letting us leave our trailer there when we broke down nearby! No questions asked, just come back when we were able. You are a lifesaver. The folks who run this campground are super nice, pleasant happy people that were willing to help.The campground was well kept and peaceful that day, and visitors were out having fun. We will be camping here next season!!
My wife and I camp there on occasion and honestly more frequently than not we just go to visit because it’s a place that just feels like home away from home, the camp manager Susan is absolutely wonderful and runs the perfect amount of a tight ship. She does so much to keep her campers safe which I love considering my son is a special needs child. I feel comfortable and safe enough to allow my child a little leeway to run around when we stay because she does have a very strict “Under 5mph” rule in effect to keep everyone at the campground safe. I know there are a lot of children running around and she proves everyday that she just wants to keep them safe. Aside from the one big rule that she has, Susan also has lots of activities planned many weekends of the month, and the campground has a pool, a bounce pillow AND a mini golf course! I highly recommend staying at this campground if you are looking for something family friendly!! Thanks again for the wonderful time, every time!
my family and I have had a permanent campsite at Cherry Grove for 5 years. when we first started camping, I swore I would never be permanent, but this place sold me. it is quiet, small, clean and very well run. there is a playground that is clean and upkept, the pool is always clean and safe for all ages. the office has some supplies and ice cream slushies and cold drinks. I am grateful that the speed limit is under 5 miles per hour to keep the kids, adults and pets who are enjoying the camp safe!!! we enjoy the many themed weekends as well as holiday weekends. there are always fun activities for everyone!! would highly recommend!!!!
