Nice quiet place

Once I go onto the park the staff were nice, and helpful. If you don't know the park already, it was a little confusing finding my RV spot. Once found, the park was clean, nice and quiet. Unfortunately, I did not take a peek at the bath/shower to see it's cleaniness. It was not overly crowded and the other visitors were very friendly. For a pet friendly place, others do a very nice job at keeping up with their fur babies. If you have kids, there is not much there for them other then the lake. The big pounce pad they usually have is not there, guessing it's due to covid.
