Horrible experience in RV park, please don’t stay here!! While doing laundry and considering a shower, we experience a very drugged out girl in the laundry room, then bathing herself in restroom. Another sketchy guy tried to take shower and it timed out on him. THEN while we were experiencing RV toilet issue, were told by management that we were not welcome to come use the laundry restroom as it was after hours! Would be locked at 11pm and we were not granted a key to use restroom in middle of night not even in hotel lobby. We are seniors and need facilities in night. Desk young man tried so not his fault. He was extremely nice, but management said too bad, go down street to convenience store (in middle of night). Then convenience store said no! They had to lock up restrooms because of drugged people. Bad part of town, stay away!! No consideration, no sympathy, no nothing. Oh and no WiFi either. Don’t come here! Management you stink!!! Your employee was amazing though, so don’t be hard on him!!

Good thing is room was clean and good breakfast. However, the bed was way to soft and saggy. No support after a day of fishing. The toilet is way to low to the ground. Good height for a 5 or 6 yr old, not a 5'2" senior, Nor 6' fisherman. Furniture in room was old, shakey, short and low. It was good height for a 5'2" lady. Very few outlets. So hard to charge devices, or use Cpap machines. Needs to be updated. For the 1990s it would have been fine, but that was 30 years ago!!!

A good overnight stop however the park appears to be neglected. Gravel roads to and in the park are crater rich. The actual park is across a municipal service road. Evidence of no good around but not in the CG. Our stay was uneventful. Wifi not detected.
