We absolutely love this place, however, since Sun Outdoors took over I can’t help but feel like I’m always getting bait and switched. For black Friday they are advertising 40% off so I went out to make a reservation for this summer to take advantage of the deal. After looking at the exclusions on the webpage, I found that our dates were available. That however was not the case. So after attempting to make a reservation online, I called the 1800 number and waited forever to only be hung up on. Then called back again, to be told that there are way more exclusions than described on the webpage. Why advertise something at 40% off if it’s a lie??? You’re only making the people who love this place and come year after year mad. I spent a good 2 hours attempting to make a reservation, All For Nothing!!!

The people who work there are extremely kind and keep the park/resort clean. The cabins need a little TLC and new beds in the bunk room. We go every year and stay in the same cabin each year… same bed. I recommend bringing an extremely thick mattress cover because if you don’t, you’ll be leaving with horrible back pain.

We rented the “legendary” cabin for the 6 of us. The pictures were very different than what it was. It is very very compact. Not even room to do family games. You can’t open the bedroom door all the way cause the bed is in the way. The bathroom has no exhaust fan. The mattress and pillows were stained. The couch was very broken in and also stained. Don’t even bother with pull out couch as the “mattress” is stuck folded in half and had a ton of dead bugs. The ceiling in the loft area was peeling and appeared to have water damage. The “pads” cause they were not mattresses were falling apart. The cabin was clearly not cleaned well before us as we found a person undergarment on the living room floor which was impossible to miss. We were given a map and list of activities on our arrival for the park and after we are told everything the person said well none of this matters to you cause it’s not open or happening today or tomorrow. While the location was great next to holiday world, it’s not easy to get too. There is nowhere to park but in this “cul-de-sac” like area where everyone having a cabin in that area also has to park, making it almost impossible to have somewhere to park. For the price we paid I expected it to be much nicer (similar to the description and photos). I am never one to complain but I’ve never been so let down with a trip ever. We found that everything at the camp ground is closed on Mondays. Which we had no clue of. We chose to leave first thing in the morning. I’d rather find something else to do then sit on top of one another in this cabin. We will not be returning. They need to do major updates. I hate leaving these reviews but people need to be ready for what they will be really staying in vs what they show you for the price they charge. Huge huge let down. Buyer be aware!

This has been my family's favorite place to camp since 2015. UNTIL new management took over and skyrocketed the prices. It went from being $50 a night to $160+ a night for a week. For the first time since 2015 we won't be spending a week camping here in 2024. For prices at $160+ a night you'd except to be somewhere like Disney World. People camp because it's something relatively affordable and low key for the entire family to enjoy, relax, and spend time together, but at prices this steep, we will be looking elsewhere to spend a week in the summer and a week celebrating Halloween as a family.

Overall, it was okay. They had some neat activities for kids for Halloween. The staff were friendly upon check-in and the porch was nice. But, that’s about where the greatness ends. The cabin was way overpriced and there were things that were broken or didn’t work. Some things to note, for light sleepers, don’t flush at night, it’s so loud. The fire alarm is right next to the oven/range, so anything sets it off.

Christmas cabin was expensive to stay in. Was hoping for it to be clean. The toilet was not cleaned. The floors were black. Found mice droppings and dead bugs inside cabin. The dishes under the sink all had mouse poop droppings on them as well. All of the dishes had to be washed prior to use. When I looked under the couch it was full of dust and trash. There were cobwebs on light fixtures and under furniture, burned out light bulbs, broken pieces of trim on the shelving that kept coming loose and the kitchen trash can was caked with filth. I regret not bringing this to management attention while we were there. I had to buy my own cleaning supplies to clean my cabin the day we checked in. Not worth the money if you have to clean everything and buy cleaning supplies. Maintenance did bring me a light bulb after I fell outside down the stairs because it was so dark. Really hoping to come back next year but not so sure after this experience.

This place is more like a nightclub than campsite!!!!!I thought your campground was family friendly. I don’t consider a diverse camping experience for my children to include being next to a bar till after 11:00 pm +.Thanks so much

Stayed at the cabins at Lake Rudolph. They were tidy and modern. Not huge but you aren't really there for the cabins, you're there for the park. They were clean, and worked perfectly for a little private room in the woods. It also has shuttles going through and golf carts you can pick up and rent. Absolutely worth saving on driving and time to get to the holiday world park

We had the BEST time here! They have almost everything. Definitely rent a golf cart, the place is so big that the golf cart made it so much easier to get around. It’s such a kid friendly place with so much to do. My husband and I enjoyed everything as well! The staff were so nice and exceptional. The only “issue” we had was our cabin wasn’t ready when we got there and the young man working the front gate didn’t really seem to know what he was doing. He was really nice and we kept patient with him, but we eventually got into our cabin. We did get to drive our golf cart around until our cabin was ready which I thought was great for them to allow. Our cabin could have used some dusting and mopping because our bare feet got dirty almost instantly, but everything was really great and comfortable! The shuttle to holiday world was a BLESSING! We didn’t have to drive over there, and it was so convenient to just pack a bag and get on it. Words can’t describe how much we recommend this place! We will now be coming here as an annual visit! Already excited to be there again!

Well the campsite was great. But, the shower houses had much to be desired. I was rather surprised that as much as they charge for staying there that the facilities as in the bathhouses and laundry mats were not in better shape. Those amenities were lacking. Another thing that was aggravating was all the d—- golf carts. It is nice that they rent golf carts out, but children should not be allowed to operate them. Also you have to deal with all the noise noise noise. Every night they have a golf cart parade where they all line up and drive through the campground repeatedly playing loud music extremely loud and screaming and hollering. But after the parade it’s not quiet time. No they continue to ride around have a mobile party keeping you awake until late at night. Also they must not have requirements as to what you can burn in your camp fire. Deadly smoke. That’s some of the most annoying bad. As far as the good They are right next to Holiday World and have shuttles that pick you up and transport you to the front gate of Holiday World. Which is GREAT!!!! They do have activities for the kids every morning and have a great pool and arcade. Also they have two nice campground stores for convenience. One other thing, they are also right next to the police department.

We arrived after 3 pm on 7/20/2023, we were told our cabin was not ready and we also paid the 40.00 lock in fee, to be next to our friends, we were not next to them, we were 5 cabins away. We were credited the 40.00, but did not solve the problem and we had made reservations a year ago. When we got into the cabin it had not been cleaned at all, the floor was filthy and did not look like it had been swept or mopped ever. Their was mold in the bathroom, there was no hand soap or body wash, both completely empty. The shower handle was broken and water did not come out of the faucet, only the shower head, making is difficult to bathe children. No stopper to fill the tub. Our toilet seat was total broken, every time you sat down you flew across the toilet. The pictures are very deceiving, adults can sleep in the loft, plus the mattresses all need to be replaced. It should not be advertised as fully stocked kitchen, it was not. Our stay was for five days, we were left one dishwasher pod, one small bottle of dish soap, one roll of paper towels and two rolls of toilet paper that did not even last two days. There were no pot holders, how are to cook and take things out of the oven without them or even any kind of dish cloths. It is time for these cabins to be deep cleaned and updated, the windows were dirty and the blinds are disgusting. We were afraid to sit on the couch it was so dirty. It is nice campground, the golf cart parade is fun and the pool are was nice. I will say the lady at the front desk was helpful, and she did give us some discount for all the problems with the reservations. I wish we would have read the reviews before booking, because it looks like many have had the same problems. Our family and friends made memories, but will not be back.

For the most part, this is an excellent family campground. Lots of activities and amenities for kids and families, plus free shuttle service to and from Holiday World all day. The downside, and this was huge in our case, were the bathhouses. No ventilation or air conditioning. In July this made for such a steamy, sweaty mess that showering was almost pointless. The bathhouse at the activity center had a bench and several hooks in each shower stall. The unisex showers just down the road had no benches or hooks at all. One shower was unusable because of a broken door. One shower had a modicum of cooler air coming in through a vent, but overall, every place we tried was humid and swampy. At $300 for the week, the shower situation made the "resort" part of the campground name a bit of a joke. You kind of expect a decent shower house for that amount of money.

My family has been going to Lake Rudolph every summer for years. We absolutely love it there! They have so many activities for families and kids of all ages. They offer a different activity for the kids every morning with only a small cost for the supplies (ex: tie dye, sand art, stuffed animal.) Every other night is a Glow Parade for all the decorated golf carts. We go all out and bring our lights and themed decorations to try to make our golf cart look the best. Lake Rudolph has a nice pool and water slides. They have a putt-putt golf course, a couple big playground areas, basketball courts, a snack shack with pizza, ice cream, etc, and so much more. They offer a shuttle bus service to Holiday World with multiple bus stops throughout the campground to ensure that one is within walking distance from your cabin. Tips for your stay: ALWAYS book a golf cart, bring lights and decorations for your golf cart, and bring towels and blankets. We love Holiday World, but Lake Rudolph is what keeps us coming back to Santa Claus every year!

This campground is in my top 3 list. It is directly next door to Holiday World. They even have a shuttle that will pick you up and drop you off at the entrance to the park. At night, the campground is very lively. There are many cabins for rent, my mom has stayed in them on 2 separate occasions. They're very clean and welcoming. I'll camp here as often as I get the chance.
