Stayed one month running from weather. Trinidad is awesome! This "park" is not. It's a maze of mostly run down rv's, mostly permanent and it's an eyesore. Trashy. We picked up a bad full of trash on the way to the trash. They take $100 deposit and told us it was if we leave the sight a mess. At the end of the month they said we needed to let them know a week ahead we were leaving or we forfeit the deposit. Very "scammy." Had problems with packages because they didn't know who we were, yet they gave us the address to get deliveries. Seems like they're just collecting money, not putting any money into this place. Great location, not a great park.

I've stayed at the motel twice, each time for 2-3 months. I'm hoping to come back as soon as there is an opening. Everyone was extremely nice and I really loved staying there.

My son lived there recommend. A couple years ago. The owners/managers, Rusty and his wife were wonderful. They made the move in and out very easy. They were always there if you needed anything. I would highly reccomend.

We had a pleasant stay. Management was prompt to deal with an issue. Clean, quiet park with good longer term tenants and open spaces for short stays. We'd stay here again.
