Nice place.

I stay here a few times a year on the way to the Black Hills in my car camper rav4. Perfect if you're looking for a place to rest or park overnight in the middle of nowhere. Can fill up fast in the early evening. About the only negative I have is to many houses on wheels. Good base for the area.

Sitenot really any sites, sorta like a pool table top!
