We love to go there in the fall it’s beautiful and the weather was perfect. We only live about an hour from home so it’s perfect for a quick getaway

We got in after hours and were able to hook up the RV with no issues. The couple that were overseeing the park were fantastic and left all of the info we needed on our rig in the morning. Overall it was a great experience and we will be back.

This was our second time staying at this park. We stayed mid-week with a total of three campers in the whole park. There was a problem with the power early in the morning with the voltage dropping below 100 volts for a couple of hours then a total power outage for about 30 minutes. The park has lots of shade trees. Would stay here again.
