Comments:
i'd like to take the time to review hickorynut cove campground. my family bought into this

campground in '96. it was a camper with 2 rooms built on to it. it was a nice place and my

folks enjoyed it and liked the campgound, at first. things change, everything went up and

things that were free wern't free anymore. dad died, mom gave the cabin to me, i built her a

house for it. i enjoyed going up to the cabin, fishing, watching tv & really just getting

away from my business. the trailor above me sold, cut trees down so new owner could fit new

additions(shabby built) on to his lot, addition 3' from my camper and one of the trees cut

was on my lot, it was "sick" i was told. this remod ruined the look of my cabin in the woods

i had had for 10 years. if your neighbors want to do something to their little camper,

don't even think you'll be involved in the process. trailor below me sold and he put his

deck "on" my lot, so don't get the idea that you really "own" anything if you buy into this

campground. oh, we were told we couldn't cut trees. the contract/lease/piece of paper you

get when you are allowed to use the campground for money is vague, the rules are made up by

mr elam as you go along. don't like something, no problem, your in mr elam's world. you

might "need" to sell your camper i was told, followed by you might "have" to sell your

camper. mr elam is not going to let you sell your camper to "just anybody", even though he

has a registered sex offender living at lot #2. but don't worry, he'll sell it for you, for

a fee. i sold my trailor and glad to be done with mr elam, i do want make it very clear that

anyone that considers a campground membership to "run like the wind" when you come across

hickorynut cove.
