Very nice city park! Pull through and back ins. Two with full hookup and the rest with electric and water. Well facilities look fairly new. There is a disc golf course here and a nice walking path. On the edge of town. There is a railroad track that goes right to the south of this park and the train does go through.

Loved this place! Can't beat the price, 20.00 for elec/water/sewer. 15.00 for elec/water. Only us and one other camper. Train only came by once that we saw and was before bedtime. Clean place with clean restrooms and showers. Concrete pads with large grass areas but no shade.. Would stay again. Grocery store in town closed too early IMO.

Amazing little place to plug in your electric and hook up your water and sewer. There is only one shower for women and one shower for men but what a neat little place for a quick stay if you’re just trying to rest on your journey. There were other people that were not staying there that were utilizing the shower so there was a wait.

Hot shower clean bathroom. Needs a toilet stall and an extra area for changing. Because it's an open floor plan. The shower has a wall.

We stopped along the road trip for a picnic and to use facilities and was impressed. Lovely simple campgrounds at $15/night would be a great spot to pass thru along a road trip.
