You'll find 70 full-service RV sites with sewer, water, and electric, as well as water and electric sites and dry sites. The facility has pull-through sites and is big-rig friendly. Guests have access to various amenities, including free Wi-Fi, a coin laundry with ample washers and dryers, restrooms, men's and women's showers, water and propane filling stations, and a dump station. The facility is also pet-friendly.
