Gregory Bender
Nice and secluded, easy enough to get to but far enough out of town to be nice and quiet. I would absolutely stay here again with an RV. Fair price, easy to dump, plenty of space for the 35 foot RV we were in. Solid location without any of the nonsense.

Quality wise this matched most KOA's Price wise it was cheaper Very quiet at night Clean grounds, clean restrooms and friendly staff. Only odd thing was the restrooms being closed from like 10pm to 7am. Best Part was sitting along side of the runway and watching the planes take off and land.

Great small, simple campground. All sites are gravel/grass pull throughs that can handle bigger rigs easily. It is a bit overpriced for what you get, but not bad. It was quiet and pleasant for our one night stay. Perfect base camp for rail fanning the railroad.

Quiet park for one night or multiple nights. There is a sandwich shop at the airport a short walk away. Sites have water and electric hook-ups and there is a dump station next to the main building. The bathrooms and showers are a bit older but they are cleaned daily. There are 2 clothes washers and 2 clothes dryers. This is a 5 star for my purposes and since I have a cassette toilet. Others will likely give it less for lack of a sewer hook up and having to level up at the sites. It is quiet and this morning before sunrise I heard a Western Meadow Lark, Horned Lark, American Barn Owl, Lesser Goldfinch, House Finch, Killdeer. I have also seen a covey of California Quails, Red-winged blackbirds, Ravens, Crows, Greater Roadrunners, Red-tailed Hawks as well as the European Starlings and House Sparrow interlopers. I have heard coyotes at a distance in the early morning predawn hours. I have never heard them near the park. The staff ask that you along with your pets keep to the paved park perimeter road and off the grass between the park and the runway. All in all Mountain Valley RV Park is a sweet respite for a night or an extended stay.

Nice little RV park. Right next to an airfield with little planes flying above. Desk clerk warned about coyotes. Plenty of pull through spots for big and little rigs. Electric and water at sites. With a dump station on the property. My only complaint is the laundry machines you have to download an app and add at least $10 to an account. Just bring back coin operated machines
