YOU NOTICE the gentle ripples in the pool. It relaxes you as you dip your toes into the cool water, with luminous shades of the sunset painting the sky above. This idyllic scene awaits you at The Broken Banjo campground, a place for peace and recreation in your hometown. Roadville, a dedicated family-owned company, recently transformed this beloved community treasure, founded over 50 years ago. The family is committed to creating exceptional camping experiences for guests.
The Broken Banjo RV Park transports you into a world where rustic beauty blends with modern conveniences from the moment you enter the parking lot.
“The park is a peaceful escape into nature that is still in the heart of civilization, so it’s the best of both worlds — enjoying the outdoors but easy access to modern life,” said Jody Marshall, general manager of The Broken Banjo.
Breathe in the fresh air, filled with the scent of pines and wildflowers, as you wind through the thoughtfully landscaped grounds. The sun shines bright, filtering through the leaves of towering trees and casting shadows on the paved pathways.
You make your way around the park, where the joyful sounds of laughter resound from the playground. Children shriek with delight as they scale the brightly colored climbing structures. Parents relax nearby under the shade of a pavilion. Their banter blends with the surrounding trees rustling in the wind.
Unwind by the pool or explore the hidden trails.
The sparkling pool beckons those seeking a refreshing escape. Families splash and play, creating memories that will last a lifetime. Relax on a comfortable chaise lounge and soak in the warm sunshine.
A hidden trail invites exploration beyond the pool. Lace up your hiking boots and embark on a journey along the nature trail.
“The planning and construction of the nature trail absolutely complements the property’s natural beauty,” said Marshall.
Lush greenery and the gentle sounds of cicadas and crickets surround you. As you walk, keep an eye out for playful squirrels scampering amongst the trees and the flash of colorful birds dashing through the branches.
Unleash your inner explorer with unique “glamping options.”
The Broken Banjo offers an unforgettable glamping experience for the adventurous spirit. Slumber among the leaves in the enchanting treehouse cabin as its nostalgic charm transports you back to your childhood. Or, channel your inner pioneer in the Conestoga wagon. It is complete with a cozy interior and a campfire pit for evening storytelling under the starlit sky. Teepees and a spacious safari tent round out the diverse selection, ensuring an adventure-filled stay that caters to every taste.
It’s a campground and a community gem.
The Broken Banjo’s dedicated team actively contributes to the local community and tourism economy. They support local events and are proud Manchester Chamber of Commerce members. They generously donated a two-night stay in a deluxe cabin to an event for first responders at the fairgrounds. Their community involvement highlights their deep connection to their neighbors.
The dedicated staff takes pride in exceeding guests’ expectations and ensuring they feel right at home.
“While our grounds and accommodations are beautiful, our staff brings The Broken Banjo experience to life. We are committed to exceeding expectations from check-in to departure with our friendliness and cleanliness,” said Marshall.
Create memories that last a lifetime.
The Broken Banjo cherishes the multi-generational traditions guests have built within its grounds. Basking in the nature surrounding the park and indulging in the activities within it allows friends, families, and individuals to create memories and try new things.
“We had a guest last summer who has been coming to the campground since childhood. She learned to swim in our pool and now brings her family here. We are excited for new guests to start making their memories with The Broken Banjo,” Marshall shared.
The Broken Banjo welcomes guests from all walks of life. Families create lasting traditions, and solo travelers come seeking a peaceful escape. Strangers become friends around crackling campfires in the campground and exchange stories under the night sky.
