Little leveling required. Our 50 ft hose did not quite reach the water hookup, we had to add the 25 ft hose. The 30 amp power dropped when we used multiple appliances at once, but otherwise reliable. Sites are long with a lot of space between. Even in season, this park was almost empty during the week. Many birds and other animals. We got no OTA TV here. Verizon was very slow with only 1 bar of 4G. The entry road is a bit rough in spots, but manageable if you go slowly.

Beware Raccoons are thick around the campground. They ate the seat of my boat.

Great campground with access to the Arkansas River for fishing and fun. The staff is awesome , very friendly and helpful. One of my favorite places to go camping. The park is kept clean and so are the bathrooms and showers

Some kids in the next site scratched their initials in the side of my camper and let 1/2 the air from both front tires. Uncontrolled animals. They also clogged both male toilets. How do I know? They were the only other ones there.

All the sites are nice and big, with water and electricity. Verizon reception was terrible. A very good BBQ place is in McGee called Hoots. About 30min. away. This is a nice quiet place to camp. Restrooms were not that clean. Grocery shopping is also limited in town.
