Stayed here over night. The slip we got was able to handle our camper and frightliner 72' with no issues. We did not have to unhook from the camper, which made it easy to leave the next day. The slips are dirt/stones and some areas are a little wonky but,not bad. The trees are trimmed nicely and that was helpful to get our camper in and out of the park, with no problem (13'6" height).Nothing fancy at this park but it was clean, convenient and nice place to stay overnight or a short time between driving destinations. I would stay here again. They owners where real nice on the phone and very helpful too. 😎👍

Friendly and helpful staff. Helped us out when our truck broke down on I-75 while pulling our 5th wheel. Very accommodating. Thank you.

Was after midnight when we pulled in, too exhausted from driving all day to even unhitch, but a street light gave us enough light to plug in and go to sleep. Very convenient from the highway. Quiet. Easy to get our 36ft fifth wheel in and out. No hassle check in. Would stop here again if going this direction.

This campground is the perfect spot for an overnight stay. Right off 75, very quiet, full hook-ups, and the owners are SO sweet. They answered any questions via text. When we inquired about check-out time, we were offered an extra hour in case it was needed (which works out perfectly with our next destinations check-in time). We previously used a Love's RV stop as a mid-way reprieve on our journeys south, but will stop here from now on. The price and service are unbeatable!
