Came to stay for a weekend because my husband was doing his first course. Had a wonderful time. Enjoyed walking around the grounds with all the ducks and geese. It was quite and everyone was friendly.

While attending RV school, we had planned on bringing rv there but due to truck issues had to stay in a cabin instead. Cabin C2 was right on pond which is lovely. Daily long neck turtles, geese, and ducks visits while sitting on a nice patio was lovely. Cabin more spacious than we expected. Kitchen supplies included. We went and bought a toaster and real coffee maker to use while there. Thats my only suggestion for owners

Stayed In my 5th wheel. Great rv Park. Nice level pull through sites with plenty of space between each sites.
Carol Swindon
We camped and didn’t stay in a cabin or tiny home. The sites are nice and roomy. Full hookup. Not as level as I would have liked, but workable.

This RV park was really nicely equipped for a longer stay when you are going through the NRVTA course. Two bark park areas, beautiful landscaping, ponds that you can fish from, great community center, and the pads were mostly level and spacious. But the real gem was the staff! Always helpful and happy. From the front desk staff to the landscapers, they were genuine and polite always! They were willing to work with us on our departure date which saved us a lot of time and work to pack up. The location is out there but the Arboretum is nearby where you can walk your dogs and see a beautiful park.
