Pickerel Park RV Resort

We have been at this park for 2 years. When we first went in, not great. BUT, it has came a long way. Manager works hard with what she has. Meaning not a lot of management help. The park has gotten new docks, and they are awesome. The social committee put on all types of programs, for children as well as adults. I believe people want to be pampered, although this is a park. Camp, be happy, stop gossiping in the negative fashion and it would be a much greater place. I would give manager and staff a Thank You not complain. One final thing is office needs to be open 7 days a week, as well as better hours.

Curb appeal for this park is unbelievable snow fence and caution tape everywhere. The pool is sometimes open. Sometimes not there is no ladder at the swim area. The fish cleaning station shed was taken apart and now they don’t know how to put it back together, so it sits as a platform The qualifications of the park manager is that of a chimpanzee a lot of the residents in this park fear that if they say something bad or write a review, that’s not good they will be bullied out of the park. There was an email sent out to members of the park asking for a three or four star review only and any less than that they must come to the office and discuss it this park needs new management if it has any chance of becoming a family friendly park I wish upper management can come down and help us with this issue and see what the park really is when he’s not around

Excellent park with so much to do. The park has seen many improvements this year and is looking great. The activities committee ensure that there is something for everyone from games like horseshoes, euchre, darts to dances every weekend.Lots of kids events too. Love this park and recommend it to everyone

A guest has offered this Taxi service with the full approval of The park manager for two seasons, Please be carefull walking after dark in the park as the operator has been drinking "shots" and drunks driving carts are comon on weekends in the park,

I've been in tge park for 7 years now and it has certinly changed significantly in that time, Originally known as Pickerel Park probably due to the incredible fishing in Hay Bay, Two trailer parks were combined to make up the current park some years ago, The process of updating the 1960's vintage park services has taken a few years as you would expect, Over the past several years Sun Retreats has installed, New electrical services at every site, New expanded docks and swim area, New large sptic system and field bed, renovated park office, Updated pool system and area to allow longer operating hours , Installed gate entry system, New maintinance Building, The modernization of the park is almost complete making this a great place to stay for years to come,

The dust, oh the dust! Treating the gravel roads for dust is not a priority which then causes a constant foggy haze over the campground. It covers EVERYTHING! Your vehicle, your trailer, inside your trailer, on your skin, your food and the constant taste of it in your mouth. Sitting outside is difficult due to the dust, if you don’t breath or open your mouth or eyes no worries. Sun retreat denies guest from erecting add a rooms, decks, or any other site upgrades at your cost of course, unless they are a very specific brand or meet their very specific specification which they won’t tell you what they are you have to fill out a site upgrade form’ and wait weeks to hear if it was denied or approved because they want to make sure everything meets their ‘curb appeal standards’, again no information is given on what these standards are as they want final say on what you do and giving these standard could mean someone does something they don’t think looks pretty. But the dust is not included in the curb appeal standards? Looking at trailers, cars and even people like they haven’t been washed in months is not a curb appeal standard for them as it cost them money they don’t think would benefit them. Now they did allow campers to spray the road in front of their site 2 times a day with water(again if it’s broke the campground will tell you how to fix it and not fix it themselves) but wait, they didn’t get the lake water pump in before the camping season began(or get other basic items ready like the pool, fish cleaning station, docks in and pretty much every other thing they offer was not and most still it ready) so the well is running dry and a conserve water issue was give so no more wetting down the dust. Issue you on your site? Need something corrected or fixed? No problem if it’s your first year and bring in new money. Not your first year, you can wait weeks, now months to have something fixed or maybe even given a zip tie by management to fix it yourself because maintenance is too busy to fix it even though you lost hundreds of dollars in food because of their electrical issues. If you’re looking for a place to call home for the summer and literally write your name in dust on everything you own, even your own body, feel welcomed with open arms the first 2 weeks and ignored and treated like your an inconvenience by sun retreat after that for years to come, this is the place for you. The best part of this campground is the other campers. They are all amazing! Very kind, generous, trusting and wonderful people. If only the park cared even a fraction of how much the campers do for their sites and each other this would be a beautiful place.
