We had a nice gravel, level site. The site was electric only, but water wasn't too far away and the dumping station was right by the entrance. We liked the fact that we could take a short walk to the visitor's center and catch the shuttle. They honor the Senior Pass which made this the most reasonably priced stop on our whole trip.
We stayed here in a Class A Motorhome. | | |  Comments (0) |
