It is convenient to get a site online. Sometimes the site isn't always level enough for our setup but staff are always helpful finding something that will work for us.

Site 38 is poorly prepared for being able to exit the RV parked on the site drive. There needs to be a pad to the side of drive so when stepping off RV units steps there is not a steep slope to the ditch. We attempted to ease this transition using boards and short step stool but could not create a safe entryway

Every thing is good. Need to fix the door at the shower and bathroom house number 1. Can’t get it close right and lock.
