Beautiful. Quiet. Immaculate. Great host. I spent a night here as I was passing through the area. Highly recommended. You can hike at Konza Prairie while you are in town, and it looked like there was some fun nightlife and good restaurants.

Had an amazing weekend. I would suggest that the gate post (brown) across the road from lot 39 be removed because it has no function anymore or paint it bright orange. We almost hit it trying to get into our lot. It blends into the background too well. Thanks.

Alright, park. Don’t recommend being close to water, the wind is wicked. If it’s gonna be windy, definitely get a spot close to the wall.
