WARNING: The hill to the RV parking is very steep and thankfully short. 5mph up any kind of really steep hill can really wear on your engine/transmission if you're over your weight limit, so be aware.
This Encore park does not see many TT users, so it's mostly a retail place and it shows. Nice little store, immaculate sites, everything well maintained and clean. The hot tub next to the upper pool is wonderful. The lake is beautiful!
The water is hard and has a bit of a smell right out of the faucet, but nothing detectable after the first filter. Lots of 50 amp sites and there's hardly anyone in our section (getting on towards end of season).
There's a farmers market and IGA down the road, along with a well stocked Ace Hardware. If I wanted a northern TT/Encore get-away for the summer, this would be on the short list.
There is, of course, the obligatory rail road, but it doesn't appear to be highly used and far enough away so only the lightest of sleepers will likely notice. The highway isn't very close so that's not an issue either.
Cell service is great (I'm running everything off of my Verizon router this week), and while I had no need, they appear to have a very good pay WiFi system. TV reception/choice is decent, but nothing amazing.
Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile are 3 bars.

A very large park, thus a very noisy one. Got checked in and arrived at assigned site only to find it had not been vacated yet. 3 phone calls later a manager finally told the people in the site that they had to leave. An hour later we finally got into our site. High price for cable and the dollar amount for the stay definitely was not worth the accommodation nor the aggravation in the park. If you are laid back trying to just enjoy life this park definitely doesn’t fit the bill

This is now owned by Encore. The facilities appear to be very nice; pools, bathroom and activity center. The campground isn't really big rig friendly; very narrow access roads, dirt and narrow sites (our 45 ft Class A barely fit and our Jeep had to be parked sideways on grass).
No cable, satellite dish no reception, internet is NOT free!! Our lake view site was only lake view if you were outside as you back into site and lake is in back.
The price is high in our opinion for what you get.
