Beautiful, clean, peaceful are the first 3 descriptions that come to mind. I came into the park on a Sunday afternoon expecting to see left over trash and "end of a weekend" kind of vibe from staff. NOT what I experienced! Super helpful gate greaters went out of their way to help me figure out where I needed to park & helped me figure out how to get an annual pass too. I saw staff driving through checking on eveyone several times - without being invasive, just kind and friendly. The entire park was immaculate. I was so impressed I wandered around shooting a video that I will post on my YT soon. I will be BACK to enjoy the park, not just passing through on business.
