Berkshire Campground

This is our second time staying here - great location! Sites are a little tight, no shade in portion designated for weekends or short-term. Wonderful pond, well-stocked with Blue Gill & Bass! Nice, clean facilities.

I decided to come back after 2 visits and update my review. Let's start with the elephant in the room. Yelp and other review sites make mention of "The crazy owner" These reports may or may not be exaggerated, but I suspect they at least have basis in fact. However, I think she may be undergoing anger management training, but needs to extend that to Customer Satisfaction. I inadvertently and for just a brief moment violated one of them. I was old to correct this NOW! I decided not to test her further!We did receive a WELCOM GOODIE BAG this time, so they are trying. The place is a good value and the sites are in above average condition. There is a lot to do here, but no organized activities. If you travel with a group of people you can organize your own. The pool is nice and clean and the store is well stocked.The negatives - We have a pop up camper so not bathroom, I depend on a clean accessible bathroom and shower. They fail here. They actually have pay showers where you have to insert a quarter for 90 seconds of water. I haven't seen this since the 60s and the campground is that old and so are the coin operated devices that turn on the water. On this visit, 2 of them were broke. One was broke so the water wouldn't turn on, another was broke so it would never shut off (automatically) so I ended up using that one all weekend. Final point of the shower, its better called a WATER CLOSET, because that is all it is, a small room with a shower and bench in it. I walked in and the store closed behind me and I was in total darkness, had to find the light switch in the dark. There are no hooks to hang clothes or personal items. The bench is barely wide enough to sit on and set some clothes on. You have to aim the shower head before you turn it on or your stuff gets soaked. Good luck trying to shower and keep your stuff dry if you are even slightly mobility impaired.I first got set up in unit #3 that wouldn't turn on. I moved my stuff to unit number 2 and found out the coin op here was also broken, but stuck on. Never tried number 3The mini golf course looks nice and was nice last year, but this was someone's attempt to make something nice without thinking it through very well. The course was built on larger gravel with ashphalt thrown on top. Its now settling and that makes the course almost unplayable, especially the middle holes. We did have a nice time in the clean pool and the store was nice. This is close to home for us. If others wanted to come here again, as was the case, I would go, but I will probably look elsewhere most times.

DO NOT STAY HERE!!!! The crazy lady who says she owns the campground is off her rocker. She will yell and scream at you for anything she deems fit. You are camping on her land at her will so you must bow down to her. Your wheels touch grass she says she will throw you out. Not have a sticker on you vehicle she says she will throw you out. Splash too much in the pool she says she will throw you out. I think you get the idea. They went from taking cards to cash only so make you wonder why. The grounds guys are great but cannot ever make up for the lady that owns the place.

Please do not waste your hard earned money here. Please. Yes, the prices are cheap. Yes, they have availability. There's a reason why... Sharon, who owns and runs this place(Why? I will never know because she HATES people) may be the meanest, rudest and quite possibly the worst business person I have ever met in my life. I don't think I will ever know why she chose this profession. She had over 50k worth of checks in her hands for the purchase of 2 park models and a year of pre paid rent for both units. We were literally 90% of the way through the closing and getting our stickers for our cars. Me and my friends drive company vehicles that change often, so we asked what was the proper protocol for getting a new sticker or updating the vehicle on file. She told to us F off and we were never welcomed back. It's her rules and you do as she says or you F off. No matter what type of solution we offered her, nothing was acceptable for her. This really could have been solved easily in so many different ways. She actually followed us out the door in a profanity laced tirade as we left. I still to this day cannot believe this is actually a real thing that happened.

Staff was rude. Once I got to my camp sight it did not have working electric. My husband came W/our kids and they wanted to charge us $10/person. Bathrooms were not clean.

Do not camp here the workers are rude and unprofessional pool is full of bugs the time we were ther they never cleaned the pool it's disgusting

It is the best camping experience I've ever had personally they are the best camping places

My husband and I attended the Lazer light show on Saturday night, 4th of July weekend. Never participated in or went to a Lazer show before. It was fabulous. The reflection off the water into the woods and trees looked like billions of twinkling LED Christmas lights. The staff worked their butt's off to set it up, we arrived early and watched all the background work it takes to put on such a enjoyable presentation. I highly recommend attending if you have the opportunity. We love it here, it is a little community and it seems like everyone is family and get along. After the tornado hit us, the staff under the direction of Mickey took a deep breath and jumped into action before daylight hit. I was like an everyday thing that they practiced routinely. Though there has never been an event like this. Everyone worked together getting the community up and back on it's feet. Mickey was like the director of a symphony and the music being made was a beautiful song. The numerous hours of continued work went on until there was a return to somewhat normal. She and her staff deserve a very big thank you and there is really no compensation that could reward them for what they did. I love this place. It is beautiful, serene, relaxing, and a community of friends, and neighbors. Like an extended family.

I wouldn't even rate this place it's that bad and the staff in the office especially MICKI is rude. Don't waste your time going there. I had to add a sat rating in order to post this.

Fucking awful. $50 a day and not only do I have to pay to shower but guess what? The owner is on vacation so the store associate is closing 2 hours early every night and guess what? Showers are completely locked up, you only get to shower during business hours.
