Not Bad, Good Pass through RV Park, Not Paved

We have stayed here a few times with no issue. The people that answer the phone are nice and helpful. We stayed at this park along our commute to Oregon.

Full Hook Ups.

Easy to get into the park and easy to get situated.

All dirty, with concrete pads for your RV or Trailer.

Not a bad spot, felt safe and headed out the next day during our commute.
