Made in the Shade is a fantastic campground with beautiful lake views and the BEST hostess. Miss Penny is incredibly helpful and always smiling. This place has a family feel and is a close knit community. Town is within walking distance and a fun place to visit!

This is the best park with the best park host. I’m really writing this review as a response to the one star review that Spencer left below. It’s all lies. I was there and that’s not how it happened. This person lied getting into the park because she told the park host she had insurance and she didn’t. She even told me other residents that she didn’t have any family and so we all tried helping her out- But according to that review below, she has a daughter. The Made in the Shade owner gave her a refund, tried to put a roof over her head for free, and even offered to keep her items until she figured it out-But she got mad at them when she realized nobody would be paying for her camper because thats what insurance is for. Nothing is wrong with that park and nobody could control those trees falling. It seems to me that karma came knocking for those scam artists.
