Disappointed, arrived after office closed and was told where to park. Spot had a broken water line that leaked under our unit to the neighbors. They tried to say we backed into and broke. Because of the water running tried saying it was our sewage of which we didn't even hook up to. There's old decapitated buildings everywhere of which we were parked next to one. Not a friendly place, Be Ware!

Had a great stay at Big River RV Park recently. What really stood out was how well-maintained everything is. The grounds, the facilities – it all felt clean and well cared for, which always makes for a more comfortable stay. Highly recommend if you're looking for a spot where they clearly pay attention to detail!
