Great location, nice park overall, but the lack of maintenance is extremely apparent. The workcampers and rangers don't do much. The gate was never manned, and the amount of trash throughout the park was disgraceful. Also, low limbs are a hazard to larger rigs. Would stay again, with lower expectations.

I live in the area close to the park. It is awesome and always clean. The staff is always nice and helpful. The hook ups always work and are in great condition. Excellent location if you like to bank fish. Verizon‘s cell phone coverage is excellent. Can’t say enough of how much we enjoy airport park
