Our trip to Mott Park was pleasant. The Park Rangers were great too. Very nice and respectful to the campers.

The park was decent, however the site seemed to have some sort of electrical issues. While it is a 30 amp site, and I have a 50 Amp Camper, this site seemed to trip the breaker more than others I've been in. We could only run 1 AC at a time, even on the lowest settings, which has not been the case in other sites. Not a deal breaker, but something to be aware of if you are using this site.

Nice, clean, and quiet. Freshly mowed. We did not have an advance reservation. You must use the website for reservations as no attendant was at the gate. The online reservation was quick and easy as we sat at the front gate. Numbers for sites are a little difficult to see. Use the park map to help find your site. We stayed at #24 not knowing the layout. It is on a slope. When we stop for the night we usually don’t unhook the fifth wheel. Thankfully our head was uphill! No problem with hooking up electricity or water. We will definitely stay again if passing through the area.

Grass is very tall and road desperately needs repairs. The view is great if you get a waterfront site. But the sites are close together.

Pull in sites and most other sites are facing away from lake. Get a view of someone else trailer! Someone didn't think of want smart enough to play it the sites! Probably won't visit this park again.

This was awful. We were in the group camp area. There was a rowdy drunk group who kept our group up all night partying, bad language, and creating an unsafe environment. We didn’t have a camp host ever come to us. We had no way of resolving their lack of ability to follow the posted quiet hours. We called the county sheriff out and the deputy spent 2 minutes onsite and asked them if they were being loud, and they said no. He left and they got louder. The police made us even more unsafe because they got louder. The police also never took any time to come back. It was a horrible experience. This is not a safe park for families.
