Review Summary
Preston S

Large open parking lot for lots of traffic and travel trailers or horse trailers. Has camping spots that are fairly open for about a dozen tents. Most camp spots had picnic tables which was a bonus. Large ramada and group fire pit as well as picnic and serving tables for large crowds. Worked great for our group. Only downside was close to highway so a lot of traffic noise but far enough away that young kids running around wasn't a concern of safety.
