Surprise Pella Balloon Fest while we were there. (Our neighbor told us we lucked out because his friend with a balloon had to cancel at the last minute!). Campground is lovely, extremely well-kept, and clean. Showers were roomier than many have in their own homes!

Our family enjoyed our overnight stay at this site. The lot was easy to get into and the facilities were very clean and well maintained. If we are back in the area, we'll definitely stay here again.
