Evergreen Lake

Was at Evergreen Lake this past weekend with our 2 sons upon arrival we were greeted by a very nice lady behind the counter. She was very accommodating in showing us what the campground had to offer. While we were checking in the manager had came into the office and even offered to show us up to our site. This is a true campground in a wooded area not an open field with the country feel. We ended up staying 2 nights and my kids had a blast we went fishing and boating and my son had hooked into a big fish and almost had it into the boat but forgot his net. They also said the miniature golf course was quite challenging my 2 sons are quite competitive but my younger son actually won. Both nights we sat by the campfire and did some s'mores nothing like a good s'mores on the campfire. We had also talked to some of the seasonal campers that have been there for years and had told us how much they liked it there as a weekend get away some of them traveling as far as New York. We were very impressed as most campgrounds we have been through are turning into more of a resort than a campground. I can say we will definitely be back this season and if we decide to go seasonal this would be a great place to do so, very comforting. more

Unfortunately I have to make a comment here regarding a review I just finished reading below. more

This past weekend we took our travel trailer and stayed at Evergreen Lake. We had a great time from check-in until we left. It was absolute torture getting the kids to leave. more

First off, it should be less than half a star if any at all. I recently had my wedding and reception there since it was convenient for us to have both there at a cheap price. The ceremony site is beautiful, but the reception site, although there was nothing physically wrong with the site itself, the staff and owner were rude and made up rules as they went along. more

Management is vague, inconsistent and not at all accommadating. We chose this Pavilion site for a party. We paid per person. We were informed that we must use their bartenders, cups would be provided. Later we learned that no other bar supplies were available. Ice, ice scope, straws, cocktail napkins,pitchers, mixed drink cups ( the bartender was not permitted to serve mixed drinks in the 8oz beer cups which were included), even a bar rag we supplied by us. Beer was included but we could not chose the beer, if we wished to have a particular brand of beer it was an additional cost. We were promised 2 bartenders but only recieved 1 for a fee. We purchased top shelf liquor for our party only to learn minutes before our guests arrived that we needed to limit the drinks to 1 type of alcohol and soda. During party we learned that pitchers were not permitted. We were charged for 4 kegs, unused kegs were returned, managment kept the refund money. We could rent the site for only 5 hours,the party absolutely needed to end by 9pm. Pros: pretty Cons: poor customer service, dishonest staff, hidden fees more

We had the worst site. We had no electric on the first night until late into the evening. We lost money at the arcade (we were refunded), the paddle boats were not the best, everything you wanted to do cost so much extra (should be included), our guests were treated poorly, we will not be going back again. Pros: Nice scenery, the lake and grounds are very pretty Cons: No real customer service, it is like take it or leave it attitude more
