Nice location! Very good Mexican restaurant within walking distance! Only down side was that the management did not answer phone, text or email.
Ashleigh Draughon
Nice quiet campground. Stopped for the night. Checked in and paid online. Office didn’t have anyone at but had box with welcome envelope with all the codes and that we needed. Would stay here again
Shelly Eastman
No one was on-site. Reservation and check-in done by email. Loud freeway very close and Mexican restaurant within walking distance. Bathrooms on site, but no code was provided.

We're a 45' motorhome, pulling a car and drove around this campground just fine. Long pull-thru sites with 50amp and great water pressure. Easy to book online.

Primitive tent camping by the bathrooms. Reserved and paid online. Stayed the night while bicycling the Trans American Tour Route 76. Bathroom and showers were good. Coin laundry they have. Need a code to get in both. Lots of flies and ants. Mexican restaurant next door. Casey’s 0.7 miles away.

Not big rig friendly (43 ft with Toad=72 ft). Tight navigating to get to our spot which was long enough, just tough to get in to. Good for an overnight stay and the price was $40. We’d probably stay there again as there aren’t many to select from in the area. The staff was kind and helpful and the online reservation system is nice if you’re calling after business hours.
I AM of LIFE
Near highway. Less than basic. Had to work to get level. Couldnt find a dump station but maybe they didnt have one. Good for one night quick stay only. Responsive. I was traveling thru. It was behind a mexican restaurant. But considering it was the best sleep i had in days and they answered the phone. Looked like mostly long timers.

Great place to stop, professional and down to earth friendly couple running it, gave me a good rate because I didn't need hookups and they weren't busy. Clean, quiet with showers. Also have long term spots. Freeway is close but not loud or disturbing. They even stopped by to make sure I was happy with the spot.

We needed a place to sleep for a few hours and to let the horses relax and stretch their legs, on a long trip back to Florida. This family was so accommodating, and willing to accept us last minute. A beautiful farm, clean and organized barn, and such an incredibly nice family! I hope I have the pleasure of spending more time there in the future! Highly recommended!

Just a quick stop while traveling south. Sites were not the most level, but everything worked. Shady in the morning when we were leaving. For the most part, it was quiet... Honestly I cannot remember noise as we were in at 8 PM and out by 9 AM. Some long term campers. Everyone seemed respectable and nice. Easy stop...
