Just stayed here for the first time over Halloween weekend and my family and myself really enjoyed it. This place has plenty of activities for the entire family to participate in. Highly recommend!

We came here a lot when I was younger and brought our own camper. It was one of our favorite places to visit. This past weekend we went for a Halloween weekend and stayed in the cabins. It was so much fun! There is something to do for all ages. Although it is fun all of the time, going during a Halloween weekend is the best. Just make sure to book way in advance as they fill up quickly!

We have talked about camping here & visiting Holiday World for 3-4 years, so when we were looking to get closer to a good viewing area for the eclipse, and discovered the weekday discount for fall, we decided to check out the campground as part of our eclipse excursion. This place is HUGE, with lots of things to do and enjoy. Although almost vacant the whole time we were there I suspect this place is a madhouse on weekends and high season. Which is great for families with kids looking to cram in lots of fun on their vacation. Staff members we interacted with were all courteous, friendly, and helpful. The camp store is well stocked. Some of the sites looked a little rugged, in fact we upgraded on arrival to get a more spacious and more level site. Huge sections of older rental travel trailers, and a lot of newer rental cabins that appear to be quite nice. Designated sites for tent campers interspersed with sites for pop-ups, travel trailers, fifth wheels and motorhomes. From the smallest tent to the big rigs, this campground has space for everyone with lots of fun, both onsite, and at Holiday World right next door.

Lake Rudolph is a campground with an abundance of fun for all ages. There are non stop activities for kids and adults. Free Putt putt , fishing in the lake, transportation to Holiday World and Splashing Safari, movies under the pavilion , dance parties, karaoke , and swimming. They also have paid activities for a minimum fee. Santa's splashdown water slide park, bingo, kayak /paddle boat rentals, crafts and seasonal activities. This is truly a nonstop fun place! You can rent a cabin or RV if you don't have your own. They have laundry facilities, camp stores x 2, basketball courts, food service that includes snacks, pizza, pretzels, and ice cream. You can buzz around the campground in a golf cart rental to your hearts content. If you like peace and quiet this is probably not the place for you. Everyone will leave with a smile on their face. We love it!

For what you have to pay for the Holiday Cabin, you would expect the beds to be soft. All these cabins are is a glorified RV w/ a deck. If i wanted to stay in an RV, we would of brought our own. The website is very misleading. The master bedroom had no A/C vent. The shower barely fit my 6'2" fiance'. My mother -in-law watched housekeeping go into the cabin next door, & she only spent 5 minutes in there cleaning & only took a toilet brush in with her. She had no sweeper or broom on her cart. So, what do they clean? Our gas grill looked like someone tried to cook with charcoal on it & charcoal ashes were all over the deck & picnic table. Overall, it was nice to be close to the park & have a shuttle, but if you don't have a golf cart, it's hard to get to the drop off. There's no place to park a car for the shuttle drop off & my mother in law is handicapped, so her walking was out of the question. So, another $60 a day for a golf cart. We will probably stay in a hotel next time or bring our own RV & try again.

We stay in the cabins here every year for Halloween which lasts from Sept to the end of Oct I believe. Many people dress up, decorate their trailers, cabins and the golf carts are all decked out, you cannot bring your own golf cart. If you enjoy Halloween this is the time for you to go. They have a trick or treat night and many festivities for the kids. They have spots for campers and their own campers and cabins that you can rent. If you're interested in going during the Halloween weekends you'll need to book really early so don't delay!

My family rented a campsite for our new camping trailer this weekend and I can say I'll be back again. They have upgraded so many things in the park, like adding a new store since the last time I was at the grounds. The staff was very nice and the grounds, bathrooms, stores, and overall appearance was very clean and tidy. I've been to other places and nothing has compared. Thank you for making my family's trip a great memory that will be hard to live up to.

We recently stayed in the Christmas Cabins for $312 per night we were extremely disappointed. The main problem was that my husband is 6 feet 9 inches tall and the only part of the cabin he was able to stand up in was the living room. I never would have guessed that I needed to ask how tall the ceilings were when I called to reserve the cabin. The bathroom situation was quite difficult for him since he had to bend over the whole time and I even had difficulty taking a shower and I am 5 feet 8 inches tall. The video online is VERY misleading to say the least, I had no idea that after watching the video that no one would be able to stand up in the upstairs. My youngest child who is four was the only one who could stand up upstairs. We were traveling with my parents, so we (my husband, myself and our 3 children) were sleeping upstairs and it was extremely uncomfortable. The mattress were terrible, we could literally feel all of the springs in them, and the main queen mattress upstairs went down to a slope on one end, very uncomfortable. The main mattress in the downstairs was so hard it felt like a board. The light fixtures looked like they had never been dusted and the smoke detector was literally hanging out of the ceiling by wires. I called to talk to the main office as soon as we got there and I was told there was nothing they could do because they were booked up full ( I don't know what they could have done anyway, since they probably don't have any accommodations for people who are over 6 feet tall). The lady I talked to said she would pass the info on to the general manager and he would contact me. Guess what? I never heard from him. WARNING: Lake Rudolph Campground and RV Resort does not accommodate tall people. It is seriously discrimination for tall people. Also, the large pool was very dirty and gross, and did not accommodate the large amount of people that were swimming in it. There was a dead bird laying right on the pool deck that my children almost stepped on several times and hair floating all around the pool. We waited in line for ice cream for over 30 minutes at the Kitchen with only 2 people working and a line of about 35 people.

What a great campground. Perfect for families. Plenty to do even if its raining. Staff was extremely helpful. Check in was quick and painless. Sites are a bit small and cramped. Watched a couple of the larger campers having real trouble backing in. Very clean. Bathrooms were also clean and accommodating. You could spend the whole vacation here w/o going to Holiday World and not get bored. Only additional note I would have is a nice sit down place to eat maybe. Thanks!
