unhappy faceThe Wi-Fi tower was "down" while the two RV Gypsies were here. But even if it was working on this date, it would cost $5 a day or $15 a week. No cable TV here and only a few odd TV stations came in via antenna. No pool. No laundromat. TRAINS were heard blowing their horns. Train horns always rates an unhappy face from Karen Duquette, especially if they blow their horns at night.

The roads were mostly paved and the sites had a bit of grass between sites. RV's were parked facing every-other way, which is nice for various reasons. On this date, the campground gave 5% off for AAA/CAA members and 10% off for RV's from LOCAL Rental Agencies. No discounts during Stampede Season July 1 through July 20. Everything mentioned by the two RV Gypsies about campgrounds, can maybe change as time passes.

Amenities: Two ponds. Propane available. Showers. Dump station, group fire pits, playground, mini-golf. Their brochure said there were peacocks on site, but none were seen by the two RV Gypsies. No more than 2 pets per unit and each pet must be under 50 pounds. Only 2 adults plus children per unit. Additional adults are an extra fee. The mini-golf and playground require an adult to accompany children at all times. Most standard campground rules applied. Check out was 11 a.m. PROMPTLY.

Comments are only from the experience of the two RV Gypsies on a certain date. Comments do not make the campground good or bad in general. Everyone has their own requirements and expectations from a campground. The two RV Gypsies are not true campers that make use of campground amenities other than their own personal parking site.
