The site next to ours had a water leak. The whole side of the pad was standing water and mud. When we checked in they did not mention this, nor did they give us a different spot. During our stay they worked on the site, which just made it muddier, and left equipment on site. When we were leaving trying to avoid hitting the equipment left behind, we hit the camp site post, leaving a nice dent in our RV. I would have to say, not a great stay.

Gate person was very kind and professional and made regular rounds asking if we were doing well or not. Our spot was shady and comfortable even in the 100 + degree heat. We enjoyed our stay.
