The host did not acknowledge me when I arrived and waited to check in. My picnic table had been moved onto my parking space with the space number facing in the opposite direction. Apparently, so they could mow. I had to get out and move the heavy picnic table myself.

Basic campsites around an alligator lake, we enjoyed it very much. Good pointers from the host to see the area.

Beautiful stay, loved staying here. It rained the night I stayed so I couldn't see stars, but had a beautiful sunset. The lake is very nice, the sites are large, flat, and spacious. All rv sites had firepit & picnic table.

I loved the fact that the site is a mile from Rt. 41 and you don't hear any noise from cars/trucks. I really enjoyed site #13. I even had intermittent cell signal with mint mobile/T-mobile.
