VERY DISAPPOINTEDAugust 03, 2009 By gigimichaelides
We have had several people recommend Cherry Stone. As far as the wonderful surroundings of the Bay, the campground itself was horrible. They pack you in like sardines. The restrooms were absolutely disgusting, feces on the floors/walls of the toilet areas, toilet tissue everywhere. The floors were wet at all times. There were no slip resistant mats near the shower or in high traffic areas. The restrooms were cleaned twice a day but at the rate this camp ground is bringing in money, they need to keep a representative/employee there at all times. There are over 700 sites, they need to spend some money in updating or better maintaining what they have. The General Store, Bait & Tackle Shop were very nice. I think the campground needs to get a better handle on people supervising their children. People just let their children rome everywhere and anywhere. It is very difficult to drive your car to certain areas because of the children cutting out in front of your vechicle from every direction. This is an accident waiting to happen. Also, no fire rings at the sites. People who cook over open fires need to be aware of this because you find yourself scrambling to find means of cooking from the ground up. Adult pool, broken umbrellas sitting around. I feel this campground would be absolutely nothing without the surroundings of the Bay. Someone has definately gotten rich from this facility and not returned it to what could be a much better facility. They advertise Water Park, what water Park? Never go back!!

Poor ManagementJuly 25, 2009 By TGroves
I've been going to Cherrystone campground for the past 25 years off and on. I have great memories as a kid going to Cherrystone with my Family and now I'm taking my family, the memories of Cherrystone have been awesome until now. The new General manager that came on board 2 years ago has made our experience at cherrystone go bad. He is very rude, inconsiderate and unfriendly to his customers. He even went so far to tell us that he did not need our business and that we should find somewhere else to go on vacation. The Bait shop. and the people that work at the bait shop are very friendly. The Boat Mrs. Jennifer has a great crew and great fishing. The campground is overall a great place to go, but I will not go back nor will any of my family members and friends go back as long as the general manager that is there now is still managing. The lying and the false accusations that was made to me and my family was totally unacceptable

cherrystoneJuly 07, 2009 By nona577
The worst vacation I have ever had. The manager of cherrystone saw to that. I have never been treated that bad in my whole life. He treated us as if we were criminals and could not be trusted. We did not do anything to provoke this, I think they had had a very bad day and took it out on us. My husband and I both have business's and I would never ever treat a customer in this manner. I'll never go back as long as he is there.

Family Vacation TraditionMarch 10, 2009 By jlarrimo
Every year I take my family, wife and two kids to Cherrystone. This past year we took my parents with us. They are now joining the vacation tradition at Cherrystone! Cherrystone is the cleanest most freindly campground that my family has been to. There are activities everyday and most evenings. The campground if very safe for children of all ages. Both of my kids enjoy the family time together, but love that they are able to walk/bike freely around the campground. My mother is handicapped, so the golf cart rentals are a must. They are a little pricey, but everything else is reasonable. I am making my resevations for this year, right now. This year we will bring my brother and his three kids.
