Our Story
After 14 years of traveling across the country, Bill was ready for a more stationary occupation. Years of staying in RV Parks and campgrounds while traveling for the pipeline taught him the do’s and don’ts of the camping lifestyle. Knowing this, Katie and Bill decided to look into buying a campground of their own. After searching through real estate listings of established campgrounds and none of them fitting their visions properly, Katie suggested to look for riverfront property and build it into a campground. Froggy’s was found on a listing on Facebook Marketplace as nothing but property and a house that the previous owners had lived in. Bill and Katie saw the potential and purchased the property in February of 2019.
The first year of owning the property was filled with a lot of blood, sweat, and tears for us as we navigated our new lifestyle. We officially invited campers to join us Labor Day Weekend of 2019 after spending those long months getting the utilities ran, roads mapped out, floating gear purchased, cabin and office stationed, and ground maintained. We are currently at the beginning of our sixth summer of being open and our seventh of owning the property and couldn’t dream of doing things differently. We love all of our campers and the experiences that we have gained from Froggy’s!
