the campground was great. However it was a bit noisy, the host had a loud generator.

The grounds of this campsite were beautiful. I enjoyed how far apart we were from the surrounding sites. I would have loved to give this a full 5 stars but I cannot. Our 5th wheel is 37’5” (41’ tip to tail). The site accommodated the length of our rig as stated on the website without problem. The problem was the overt growth of the trees over the road and camp site that nearly took off on of our air conditioners and scratched the sides our camper to high heaven. I feel the road around the site could be much better maintained so people who have larger units don’t have to worry about potential costly damage. If the grounds can accommodate a unit much longer than ours, the height and width need to also be considered and maintained for. Beware if you have a wide body fifth wheel. It is doable but you’ll suffer some damage.
