Happy Surprise

We were happy with the primitive campsites available. Plenty of wildlife to see around the area and a very quiet place to set up camp.

One night stay

Just a 1 night stay but will return. It has just about everything you need to enjoy a longer stay. Great sites and many are pull through.

Huge spaces!

This is an amazing RV Park! The spaces are huge! We are on an end and I think ours is about a quarter acre in size! Really!There are lots of trees around and natural grass growing. There aren’t any shooting competitions going on at the time, so we don’t hear much shooting. There are only about 8 RVs in this 49 space RV area, but I imagine when they have an event going on, the RV Park is much fuller and you would probably hear more gun fire. The views are beautiful!

There is a free museum and a small laundry - 2 washers, 2 dryers.

We are strong believers in our Second Amendment and appreciate the NRA providing this center to teach people the proper handling and use of guns.
