Peacful

Full verizon 5g all around. This place ia pretty basic. But ita peaceful there is water and views of Pikes peak WAY off in the distance. There isnt alot to do here kids may get bored but if you just need to get away and relax its not that bad. Can be a bit buggy but not bad. Be careful on the soft dirt on the " beach" saw a guy almost get stuck ita pretty loose dirt. There is a boat ramp but pretty much ita just a dort area around the waters edge
