After a very long day of traveling this was exactly what we were hoping for. No fuss, park, catch a nice shower, and good sleep. The shower house and recreation building are very nice with obvious touches of people who care about their campground. We had a nice concrete pad to park on. Would absolutely stay again!

Nice little campground. Our site was gravel and we were thankful when the storm blew through in the night that the water was able to soak through rather than stand. Laundry facilities and bathrooms were clean. We were just passing through for one night but would definitely stay here again. Recommend advanced reservations if possible. The owners were very warm and welcoming which we appreciated. We travel all over the country and this RV park is nicer than many we have stayed at in the past!

We had a great time at this RV park. The town is small but there was still a lot to do around the area. Tammy and her husband made us feel at home and the neighbors we had made the RVing experience even better. The vending area was great and if you don’t have a spot with full hook ups, they have clean bathrooms and showers. One of the best Rv parks we’ve visited on our summer trip. If you have time, book it in advance because there’s only one pull through(site 17 🙏 ) We hope to come back again. We met some other great campers as well. It’s worth a stop, even if it’s for a day to rest up and get back out there.

This park is cute, safe, quiet, and fairly priced. No water in the winter months, understandably, but they have a cute bathroom with showers for guests.
