We moved around to three different places in this park, and loved them all, with some comments. C-loop is best all around with lots of space. B-loop sites have no fire pits and limited parking space. This causes crowding since many people ignore parking rules or insist on parking boat or utility trailers at their site. Parking is poorly policed.
Trail maintenance is continuing to be poor.

We always try to stay in the C loop at Melvern Outlet because not only are there full hookups, but every site has fire pits. The sites are spaced out nicely and the areas around the campsites are well maintained.

Please be aware that b-loop has low hanging branches that will come in contact with your RV. We were unable to put one of our slides out because of these branches. I really like this campground and would not remove a single tree but they need to trim and maintain them.
