Nice little park. Also has a Farmer's Market and a Flea Market. Call for these days as I was there on a Saturday and a flea market and people selling vegetables, jewelry, and your typical flea market finds. Very clean port-a-potty. Also a small hamburger stand just across from the highway.

Nice clean park with a friendly owner. Would have given a 5 but the advertised hot showers were shut down for the winter. I feel there should be reduced winter rates if some amenities aren't available. Got to park overlooking the river. Very pretty. Dryer didn't work on second day, no one around to help so got stuck with at clothes...
