Great little park for a quick stay. Easily located off the highway. Well maintained. They have 50amp electric and water hookups. Dump area. There is a picnic shelter and some grills and firepits. Each spot has a picnic table. It seems to be a fairly newer park, so there isn't a lot of shade as all the trees were on the smaller side. It's $15/night. We were the only ones there on our stay, so it wa... Great little park for a quick stay. Easily located off the highway. Well maintained. They have 50amp electric and water hookups. Dump area.

Perfect for Overnight Stays Beautiful small campground, large back-in sites, 50AMP and water. CHEAP $15/night. Beautiful airport location, plenty of room to maneuver and walk your dogs. The only negative is it can be noisy as it's close to the highway and sometimes trucks use jake brakes coming downhill into town. The noise subsides after dark and it is a peaceful place to sleep. RECOMMENDED.
