Overall very good trip, my only complaint is the water system seems to need some work due to water being muddy or maybe rusty.

Wonderful stay here. It still has the COE structure and sites in place and they are mostly private and almost all are on the water. Many of the sites are pull through and all are maintained well. The bathrooms can get out of hand depending on the guests that are staying, but the staff clean them up expediently. I found a few other sites that I would like better, but we certainly enjoyed our time and we will return! Thank you! BG
