Shadow Cruising
For Gold Country Campground Resort: We stayed at Gold Country Campground on Labor Day weekend 09/03/21 - 09/06/21 in our 28 foot TT. We reserved and stayed in Deluxe site #33, which was a FHU site.
Site 33 was okay. It definitely was not “Deluxeâ€. It was a gravel site, somewhat level, that hadn’t been cleaned or had any upkeep in some time. A lot of beer bottle caps and debris was in the site. It was a gravel pad with dirt. It was surprisingly, a pull through site, which was not advertised on their website. The electric hook up panel was leaning badly and the protective outlet cover had broken off and was laying on the ground.
We didn’t use the bathrooms or showers. The on-site “store†had empty shelves and coolers. The office/store employees were not pleasant or exceptionally helpful, they were just “thereâ€. There were no kids activities or movie nights put on by the management.
A few amenities are new, like the splash pad and wifi, but most are dated. The pool is definitely not heated and has no chairs or tables. The rec room games are mostly broken. The billiards table is lopsided and they only had 1 adult pool stick. The outdoor basketball hoop was broken and bent. The dog area was overgrown with no place to sit.
This biggest downfall of Gold Country Campground was the management letting people living in the large group of permanent residents, run their generator all night, every night. I felt bad for all the tent campers that had to listen to it all night.
Gold Country Campground is clearly stuck in between two eras and needs some serious investment to improve the guests experience.
I would stop here in a pinch, but I can’t say I’d ever recommend it to anyone.

For Gold Country Campground Resort: We had no voltage issues as previous comment. Bathroom clean. Park is quiet. We stayed during the week but families started arriving on Thursday evening. Glad we were leaving on Friday. We did a lot of exploring in the Gold Country.

For Gold Country Campground Resort: Most sites are very narrow. Some have gravel, but most are just dirt. The electrical service to our site dropped below 108 volts the first day of our stay during the afternoon while campers had their A/C on, which is below the save level for electronics. Averaged about 120 Volts when A/c were off. Lots of things for kids to do and there were lots of them. We will stay away during the summer months but would try it again in the off season.

For Gold Country Campground Resort: Nice campground with activities for children. It was quiet and there are many trees. The campsite we stayed at was level, but sloped some so I had to lower my front Jacks way down. The campsite where we stayed was so narrow that with the slides out, we only had inches on either side and had to use the (empty) neighbors campsite to get to the picnic table and fire pit. I would stay here again in a wider spot. We camped here in a 5th wheel.
