Nice place. Only problem is on the weekends you get crowded with cars parking in the RV spaces instead of the car parking area. We were the only one in the park and everyone decided to park around us and have a picnic behind our camper. There's a whole park people!!! This may be why there is not a lot of RVs staying here. Otherwise most of the time was quiet and peaceful.

CLEAN, Quiet, friendly park, lots of trees, grass and areas to walk. Great place to stop for the night in our 5th wheel, with sewer/water and electric for only $15/night!!! Also has a dump station....Will definately stay there again and recommend to our friends. Thank you Seminole, for making this park available to us!

Large beautiful park, BBQ pits with lids, tables are not covered, RV sites have full hook ups, 5 day limit $15 per night, showers and bathrooms needed some work....my grandkids thought they were gross but that this place had the toilet paper of the places we have reviewed in the last month!!!! Kids still had a great time on the toys even though it was raining, they just put on swim suits and had a great time. There was lots of driving and turning room for big rigs, mine is 40 foot.
