Basic place to park the RV. Full hookups for a very reasonable price. Grassy sites. Quiet.
Amelia Smith, Principal Broker
I love the rv park here. Spaces are grassy and clean. There is perfect dog walking. You can meander around the grounds and go for miles. The whole fairgrounds are very well kept, pretty and clean. Full hookups, some pull through spaces

We camped one night at their RV park. It is cash only, and we had to drive around quite a bit to find an ATM. There are full hookups available. First come first served, but that wasn’t a problem because only 4 RVs were there and they could accommodate at least 20. Fairly flat grass spaces. Very quiet. The nearest town seems to be failing with several closed stores and the bank has closed. However, we felt safe.
