Nice campground. Would be nice to have hooks or shelves in shower areas to be able to put dry clothes on.

Space #9 was very nice. Had good shade for our 27 foot travel trailer. Restrooms and showers were clean. We stayed four days and enjoyed the park as well as the area shopping. Price was great using our lifetime senior pass. Highly recommend!
