Nice location! Very good Mexican restaurant within walking distance! Only down side was that the management did not answer phone, text or email.

Nice quiet campground. Stopped for the night. Checked in and paid online. Office didn’t have anyone at but had box with welcome envelope with all the codes and that we needed. Would stay here again

No one was on-site. Reservation and check-in done by email. Loud freeway very close and Mexican restaurant within walking distance. Bathrooms on site, but no code was provided.

We're a 45' motorhome, pulling a car and drove around this campground just fine. Long pull-thru sites with 50amp and great water pressure. Easy to book online.

Primitive tent camping by the bathrooms. Reserved and paid online. Stayed the night while bicycling the Trans American Tour Route 76. Bathroom and showers were good. Coin laundry they have. Need a code to get in both. Lots of flies and ants. Mexican restaurant next door. Casey’s 0.7 miles away.
