The park manager was extremely helpful. Love that they have a dog park so my dogs could play off leash.

Best Sunset and Sunrise we have seen since our cross country travel. I know it’s offfseason and we only stayed two nights with no water hookup which is totally fine. The host was very accommodating with helping us with our water tank filling. Definitely will go back during regular season.

I’m guessing it is offseason but there were no trash cans that we could find, besides one smaller dumpster right next to a house. The women’s bathroom door was broken so there was no way to get in and use it. The men’s bathroom was pretty gross and looked as if it had not been cleaned in many months. We did not try the shower given the state of the bathroom and I can’t comment on the other amenities. We were able to plug in and get shore power which is why I’m giving it a few stars but I wouldn’t have paid the nightly rate if I had known the shower/bathroom situation. There is road noise since it sits just off the highway but this didn’t really bother us at all. I’m guessing it’s best to visit in peak season for a better experience overall!
