We arrived on a Monday at midday and found only one other camper here, so we had plenty of sites to choose from. We selected site 37 for it was one of the more level ones. Date of visit: Apr 10 |
|
|
The campground is located on a hill, with sites terraced up the slope. Most require some leveling. These are sites 39-40. |
|
|
Sites 16-18 are smaller sites better suited to pop-ups, vans or tents. Electric hookups are mostly quite old. Most boxes have only a 30A outlet, while a few also have a 20A outlet. Some of the boxes do not have circuit breakers so you may have to plug in "hot". |
|
|
Among the larger sites are 20-24. Apparently the primary water faucets have not yet been turned on for the season, for they are all securely covered. There are a few cold-weather faucets which can be used to fill water tanks or if you're close enough, you can hook up to one. |
|
|
There is a small play area beside the CG. The RV in the background is on site 29, with site 28 to its left. |
|
|
The bathhouse facilities, including free hot showers, are located in this building beside the campground. The entrance is on the left end of the building. It also is home to a Head Start program and a food pantry. |

|
Luke's Trail is a hiking trail that climbs the hill behind the campground. It connects with some other trails that provide several miles of walking.....rather hilly up and down walking, so be prepared. Click here for some photos taken on our walk. |

|
The water park is just a short walk from the campground. |

If you're lucky, you might be able to catch a Little League game at the nearby ball field complex. |
