Have stayed several times. Always accommodating! Friendly staff and clean sites. 3/31/2021

It is tight for big rigs to get out especially when other campers have their tow vehicles close to the road. I had to ask the guy across from us to move his car, that was partly on the road. The park has cute murals, was clean, and the staff was friendly... 3/31/2021

We stayed for a month and thought the campground was great! Friendly staff, clean facilities, 2 dog parks, long spots that fit our 40’ 5th wheel and two vehicles. Plenty of room to maneuver in and out of the spot/park. We would stay here again. 3/28/2021

The hookups worked great. I was shown our site promptly with a warm friendly greeting! Our grandson loved playing at the playground. He liked the playhouse! We stayed for one night. 3/28/2021

Nice park. Easy access to the freeway, safe and clean. 3/28/2021
