Too expensive@38 a night

Raised prices by 12 dollars to 38 a night, there are better parks for that amount

No trees but has all the modern ameneties

I’ll just say that yes this campground has no trees to keep you cool, but it’s all brand new amenities with concrete pads, 40 amp hookups, sewer hookup, water, gated entry, and good signage. If you don’t expect a beautiful campsite then it’s a great stop off the interstate, and for a good price.

I was told the bathrooms and showers are all really nice. It won’t disappoint!
