Check in was super easy. Indeed, you can Check in 24 hours a day. The facilites are small but very clean, cozy, convenient and available 24 hours. The location is was just off the freeway and right across the street from a Maverick gas station. You would think is was a noisy night but it was not. I found the location very quiet, safe and comfortable. I will definitely stay there again.

Convenient stop along our route. Made it easy for us to check in after-hours and online reservations were available. Right next to a gas station so you can fill up on your way out. Everything was clean and well kept.

I’m so glad that we stayed at this beautiful campground. It’s just off the freeway so it’s really convenient. One thing that I look for is a clean bathroom and this bathroom is Clean!!! And the hot water is Hot for as long as I took a shower. My husband liked the full hook up without paying extra for it. We will definitely be stopping by here again the next time we are driving through…

Good value 40 a night. Simple but clean park. Everything was easy. Most spots appeared as if they were pull though. We showed up late at night after 9 hours of driving. Was easy and checkout is at 11 but we have a baby and a dog so we needed a few extra and was not a problem. Laundry room available. It was clean. Bathrooms also clean. Bathrooms have additional showers.
