We did have a good time. The roadway into the park is very bumpy, would really help if you could do something with it. So glad to see you put in a new playground, grandkids love it. And the vollyball area being mowed is a big plus also. The bathrooms could use alittle more TLC.

Nice large site, pretty level. Needed a few boards under front tires. Quiet weekdays. Nice guy comes around with firewood in pickup truck. Full hookups at all sites, I think. Would return.
