Me and my daughter just stayed a couple nights in a cabin. They were cute, small little cabins that didn’t have a lot of frills but had power, ac and running water with bathroom.. stove, microwave and refrigerator. I was impressed by how clean everything was inside. It was just right for my daughter and I. The grass was well taken care of and plenty of room for kids to run and play. There was a couple playgrounds and a small stream, plenty to keep the kids busy. One of the owners, Jamie, delivered our firewood and was super friendly and helpful. The other owner that checked us in, Vicky I think was her name, was also friendly and easy to talk to. Everyone seemed to want to help us have a good stay. Camp is only a couple miles from the lake where we caught lots of fish. My daughter was especially in love with “blackie” the pony. Every single evening, around dark, he’d come to visit. Super friendly and we would love on him and he eat it up. Only thing was, you had to hide your food from him! 😂 He even laid down by our campfire two nights in a row with us. The road was a little muddy. I only noticed because we were in a mustang, but it had been raining a lot. No where near a deal breaker. But the area around the cabins was well taken care of. No mud or trash. At night we’d set out roasting marshmallows and listen to the hoot owls. Very relaxing. There’s a restaurant on site and a little store with a bit of everything from fishing supplies to soap. I believe they even sold fishing license. There were a few ATVs that kept running back and forth but wasn’t going fast. The camp ground is close to the Hatfield and McCoy trails so that’s to be expected from campers. Overall great experience and we’ll be going back!

My family have been coming here since opening! We try to come at least four to five times per year because we absolutely love Ole Henry’s Camping Retreat! It is perfect for the children with a large playground/basketball court and huge slides down the mountain! It’s so nice but even better for the adults when you can relax by the campfire or head up to the lake to fish/swim (they even rent kayaks at the store!!!). The campsites are very nice/easy hookups. And if you don’t feel like dragging a camper out, they have beautiful cabins for rent that are cheaply priced! (We rent them every now and then just because they’re so nostalgic!!!) The store is adorable and reminds you of an old-time mom and pop store. The staff is amazing too!!! Every single one of them. They’re like our family now! So if you’re ever wondering if you should stop by and check it out, here’s your reason!!!

Absolutely loved it here, the hospitality we was shown was above and beyond. The cabin was amazing, atmosphere was wonderful. Other campers in facility made ya feel right at home. Very relaxing just what we wanted. Loved seeing the goats come down from the hills. Can't wait to stay again. Definitely will be back

Wild and wonderful. Ole Henry's is a diamond in the rough and it keeps getting better! We have been coming here since they opened and have loved every minute of it! Vicky is super chill and extremely hard working to accommodate anything you and your family might need. From pizza, to kids toys, playground upgrades, firewood, warm showers, and general hospitality, she and her crew make things happen.

We gathered for Thanksgiving, football, and family. When we were packing up a Rainbow appeared over the new A frame village! We will be back for years to come.

My family from Michigan truly enjoyed our time at Ole Henry’s this Thanksgiving. Host Vicky is wonderful. My 5 children, spouses and 11 grandchildren stayed in the A frames. They are clean and provide heat, coffee makers, microwave and bedding. It is an awesome chance to relax and enjoy the family and the surrounding area. We were also able to enjoy football games and a home cooked Thanksgiving dinner provided by host Vicky. This will be a family tradition in the future.

I enjoyed Ole Henry's. They fixed Thanksgiving dinner for the campers and people in the community. It was $10.99 for the huge dinner, a drink, and dessert. The food was yummy!!

It is a very nice secluded spot. The grounds are neatly maintained. I would recommend to others. The owner is super nice and is very accommodating.
