Really love the park, the staff, the amenities and the closeness to stores and restaurants.
Bruce Turner
Part of Thousand Trails they have a few sites reserved for our use. The sites were by the road and noisy, but the site was large and level. Friendly people, it's a 55 and over park with lots of activities if you like. The pool and jacuzzi were a nice touch. Lots to do in the area.

There aren’t many cactuses, to be honest. But I don’t mind. Lovely place. Lovely staff. Love the burgers n brats.

The ladies at front office are very friendly. The park is well maintained and we like that they have gravel on the all the sites. The reason for the 4 stars is because the size of the spot was a bit tight.
