My son and I stayed here while going to the Baseball HOF. It wasn;t a horrible xperience, as the staff was helpful with us, and we did enjoy thew free movie. I was disappointed with 3 things:
- the pool had no heating system, and outdoor pools in the northeast can get really, really cold in the late summer.
- the mini golf course especially, and the campground in general, needed some major TLC.
-Advertising this as a Cooperstown campground is a bit misleading, as it is a good 15-20 miles away. I see on their website that they are now routing people through Oneonta rather than through Cooperstown.
3/5 - Could be better, but could have been much, much worse. I am returning in 2007 for Induction Weekend.

“Not What Expected”

Jellystone Park

Aug 20, 2005
6/7 found this review helpful

I would like to be extremely positive, but unfortunately I can't be. The publicity from the park site on the web builds anticipation, but the campground just does not live up to the expectations. No activities list was provided when we arrived and there were few activities, one staff member was extremely rude on our way out because he thought we exceeded the park 10 mph speed limit (we had tried to be so careful). upon arrival the cabin floor was sticky and so bad we had to clean it ourselves so our sneakers didn't make that awful sucking noise, and the pool while overall was attractive, was not well maintained (the water was not the cleanest), the snack bar was never opened once during our stay during peek season, the cabins are spaced too closely together with no shade, and for everything, there is an extra charge. However, did the three boys we had in tow manage to have fun - yes! Were the reservation staff friendly - yes! Was the cabin nice when clean - yes! When we needed bandaids and charcoal and ice were they in stock - yes! Were the hot showers hot and free - yes! All in all okay, but not terrific from the adults point of view. Rental worth perhaps $75.00 - $90.00, but not $115.00 plus $5.00 extra per day for a third child.
