FALL HAS ARRIVED AT THE CAMPGROUND

Towards the end of August we began to experience some cool nights with temperatures dropping as low as 40 degrees.  Time to get out the fleece, something we will not need in Florida for months to come.

The leaves have just begun to change colors here in the campground.  These leaves are actually dark red but with the dreary day, it is hard to tell the color.  This photo was taken in our super site area where there are 30 sites.  You can readily see business has dropped off dramatically after Labor Day.


The pool has been closed, and the entrance sign has new wording.


Yes, there is a haunted house at the campground during several Saturdays in October.  

Our work is complete in Hillsville. We were able to work with some good quality people and some others who we will call "interesting characters".  We lived through our original managers walking out one day in mid-season, which brought about quite a bit of drama in the workplace.  We were giving "A+ service" to our guests despite the biggest obstacle of all, which was severe under-staffing.  The majority of our guests were nice "down home families" but there were some others as well which we would call "challenging".  Certainly an interesting summer!
