I can't really be objective as my father and step mother own and operate this park. I can say they only accept single, male, full time residents.

This resort is expensive. We are paying $93 per night. They say they have internet- no. I called and asked they said they would reset it. Still no internet. The picnic tables will give you splinters on your butt. The trash dumpster is “conveniently” located at the front. We are in the far back property and the dumpster is located for the convenience of the trash company. I would NEVER recommend this park.

Had to drive 45 minutes because they didn’t answer their phone (called 4 times in the span of a week and never got a call back). When I got there I explained what I was looking for to the owner and they told me they weren’t accepting new tenants unless I sign a year lease which isn’t posted anywhere on the website. My first language is Navajo so it took a second for me to remember what the word “lease” meant but once I did I was like “okay! No prob” And let her know she had a TV package on her porch. Just wanted to let her know because it looked expensive and I didn’t want anyone to take it. She told me “yeah, that’s where they drop off packages.” and I said “I know! I’m just letting you know”. This lady was glaring at me through the entire interaction. Can’t say I recommend this place.

Beautiful property... except for the junk yard below and the owner's massive junk. Water is not safe and rusted water lines. Laundry facilities have rusted washers and are extra small ($3, if you don't mind rust!!) Main house, where mailboxes and (not private) bathroom is has a funky smell (like old people). Owners are rude and don't like women. Dawn told me that "women don't pay their bills" and "women complain too much" (speak up when things are wrong!) Sad!!! Dawn and Norman outright lied to me on 4 separate occasions. They are unprofessional, pathetic, old grumps! I'm so glad to be out of there! Beware... especially if you are a woman!!
