Wouldn’t let me stay there with my overlanding rig

I don’t have a travel trailer or an RV and they wouldn’t let me pay full price to sleep there in my SUV. Their loss.

Nice place

This is a nice place to use as a base to explore the area. They work hard to make it look tidy and well maintained which isn’t easy considering the weather here. They don’t have fire pits or allow rugs on the grass. Try to park so your steps don’t land over grass when it’s rainy or you’ll track mud in your rv. We’ll return and we enjoyed our stay.
