    Our group of about 20 people had a marvelous experience at Happy Camper. The ease of making the reservation was a huge decision factor when choosing the location for our team dinner. We arrived early and were able to be seated right away. Our server Dylan was a rock star and kept our drinks full, and was on top of getting drink orders as more people arrived. The food was delivered and served quickly, and was delicious. The vibe helped make the night fun; everyone was able to move around and mingle. Thanks to everyone who helped make it a great event! We will be back!
