Summary: Absolutely wonderful place to stay beautiful grounds, comfortable and cozy cottage and the best host in Tom and Katherine.Old Camp Joy is our go to place when we want to get away for a few days
Marlin P. Oct 15, 2023 08:05:32 AM
Summary: We love it here at β€œOld Camp Joy”. The Knox cottage is so nice and very clean. The bed so so comfortable and rested well! The scenery is so calming and relaxing. We thoroughly enjoyed watching the sunrise. The fishing was fun. It was nice to have a marina nearby down the road for bait and a dollar general not to far. We can’t forget to mention the amazing Lemon Pie made by β€œMary’s Cakes and flowers, from Mary herself. So good. We love it here! Great friendly hospitality!

Summary: The cottages were cozy retreats even in the rain. The cottage reminds me of an old family cottage. So much fun to stay here. The hosts were generous and attentive. It is a place to return to over and over.
Marlin P. Apr 13, 2023 12:42:23 AM
Summary: We had a great time here at the KNOX cottage. The view was just so amazing and beautiful all around us. We loved our cottage and the decor applied with the special touches made. Amazingly very clean and comfortable. Tom was very kind and made us feel very welcomed to be there. We ordered the cinnamon rolls upon another reviews suggestion and menu. Mary’s cinnamon rolls were very delicious and very filling. We loved our stay here at this place, and is definitely at the top of our list to come and stay again when that time permits. I regret we didn’t come upon Old Camp Joy with all the beautiful scenery sooner.
