One of the Worst Camping Experiences Ever – Avoid at All Costs
The water park at Bingemans is fun, but the campground is a nightmare. Bathrooms were filthy and constantly out of toilet paper, soap, and paper towels, with overflowing feminine product bins. Only four dirty showers for the entire park, and not a drop of hot water.
You pay extra for parking, yet are forced to park in an unsecured “overflow” lot outside the campground. Campers blast bad karaoke and music for hours, and every night there’s a deafening golf cart parade at 9:30pm with horns, sirens, and shouting — great for teens, awful for anyone with kids.
We saw discarded chicken and fish bones left on the road (I had to keep pulling them out of my dog’s mouth), people doing donuts in the parking lot after 11pm, and even witnessed violence and possible elder abuse next to our site. No playground on-site — just a $9/day uphill walk to use the one at the main facility.
If you want a loud, unsafe, chaotic party spot with police patrols, this is your place. If you want a clean, family-friendly campground — go anywhere else.
