Loved the area, clean bathrooms, cell service, close into town, first come first serve, honor system pay, thick green grass, clean bathroom & showers that had hot water. **The worst part was NO MATTER where you pitch up a tent the sprinklers will catch it!! They came on around 3am & stayed on till 4:30am. My tent was soaked & I had to get up & move around twice & I got soaked! My blankets were wet, such a rude awakening!!*** 😒

Really nice city campground with electric. $25 a night RV. Self-service so first come first serve. We are here mid week and there are plenty of sites including a few pull through. Very quite at night. Water and dumpstation. Lots of water locations . We were able to park and access water. There is a bike/hiking trail near the campground easily accessable by bike.

Great quiet little spot! We stopped through on our 3K trip from AK. Can't speak on anything pertaining to the bathrooms as we had everything we needed, water, power, and a dump station (no sewage hookups at spots). For $25 it's a steal! We stayed an extra night because the weather was amazing!
