Another Quiet Weekend

AW Marion is a small campground with electric and non-electric sites. This particular site sits is electric and sits on the inside circle. For us this works great as we a lot of greenspace right behind us to walk the dogs and are able to be far enough away from neighbors to not bother them. Your fire ring is right next to the end of the pad. I found out that if my windows are open (which they were) and my fire is smokey (which it was a little) it can set off your fire alarm is the wind blows just right (which it did)! This site works well for our camper and still has lots of space for tents or an ez-up. It's a short walk to the pit toilets and just a little long to the flush toilets (no showers). 

Lots of trails to hike, mountain bike and look for wildflowers and birds. 

Some recent change this year to note. It does have a great lake to kayak; however, they are fixing the dam so you can't put it at the end of the road at the campground unless you plan to walk really far to get to the water. Best bet is to drive to the marina to put in there. The marina store is closed and no boats at this time. The just updated the playground and it's next to the flush toilets up front as you pull in (not sure what they will do with the old.) The just repaved the entire park, road and pads including the non-electrics which just used to be gravel. Slowly but surely they are trying to make things even better.
