The grass at our campsite was 18β tall, the asphalt pad had broken away and was very narrow. The landscaping timber used as a stop at the end of the trailer pad was completed rotten and had the bare exposed rebar sticking up about 8β that someone could easily trip or fall on. The park hosts were very friendly and the view from the campsite was beautiful.
