Sites always well tended.
Rangers are visible & visit campground. Presence eliminates possible problems.

We love camping at Melvern. Usually it is not mowed well but it was so kudos to that. The problem is the electricity at our pole. We have a surge protector and it sends data to my phone. The park coming in keep coming in at over 132 volts which then shuts off my electricity to the camper because the surge protector is protecting my camper. It happened at least 5-6 times each day. We are in this same spot currently and will be many more times this summer and fall. Hopefully someone will check this out because anyone without a surge protector like we have will end up with power surges to their campers.
