What great people, in the week we spent there we were always greeted politely and two of the hosts even helped me replace the windshield wipers! I am a single mom who traveled out to Columbus MS with a daughter and her mother. We enjoyed the park, trails and always felt safe while there. Restrooms were always clean and grounds maintained. We hope to return here in a few months.
