We were here for 2 weeks: weekly rate is $120. There are 7 nice-sized level, gravel pull through sites in the front of the park with 50amps, full hookups and little trees so the roof top satellite dish works great. Back-in sites are in the back of the park in a wooded area where there's a small pond. Sprint cell phones and air card for internet works OK but signal strength is low. Very quiet park with no nearby trains or busy roads. 2 miles to downtown Herrin; Marion and Carbondale are the larger cites nearby. Friendly staff. You can get your mail sent here.

Spending a week here under ROD so there is no charge. We are in the front in a pull through site with FHU & 50 amp on a cement pad/patio. It's been raining a lot so we appreciate a high & dry (sort of) site. There is quite a bit of road noise from route 59. The office staff are extremely helpful & friendly. Been here before and will return. Nice laundry facility. Must use external antenna & amp for reliable Sprint cell and internet service.

We stayed in a level, gravel pull-through long enough for our 37' 5W. The truck was parked across the front. The trees between sites were small so our rooftop dish worked fine. Sprint cell access was poor but usually worked. The indoor pool was very nice. Roads are gravel and well graded. We stayed under our AOR membership. Very quiet here during the week in mid September but lots of weekenders and kids. Just off the expressway but very little road noise. One hour to Dayton and excellent Wright brothers historical sites and Wright Patterson AFB/USAF Museum. Armstrong Air and Space Museum was disappointing.

Very large grassy, back-in sites with 30amps and water adjacent to a lake. There's one dump station. It's an open area so rooftop TV dish works good. Sprint cell signal is weak and air card is very slow. No fairground activity so it was quiet but could be noisy and busy if there were activities going on. Best and closest gate to enter is #3 on the north side of fairground. Main gate is very narrow and has low arch over it: but if you are very careful you can get a dually and 13' 3" 5th-wheel in.

New CG with sites in an open field. 50 amp so we can use 2 AC if needed. Good paved roads, gravel sites some with concrete pad for picnic table. Stayed here under AOR, $9.63/night with tax. 12 miles south of Bloomington so not much around here unless you like the outdoors. 1/4 mile dirt track for race fans & an outdoor drive in movie 4 miles away. If you want some peace & quiet you'll like it, no street lights. Lots of well maintained RVs parked on sites with no one there, must be seasonal or weekenders. CG is well maintained, showers and bathrooms very clean. Sprint coverage is slow but works. Outdoor pool closed now, 9/18 but indoor pool looks very nice.

We stayed under our ROD membership free. It's a decent CG. Site was a grassy back-in plenty long enough for the 37' 5W and truck. Were able to use rooftop dish after a little positioning. Many sites are in the trees. There are 2 outdoor pools with plastic liners and their bottoms were bumpy. Our Sprint phone and air card needed the outside antenna and amp to work. Our friend's Verizon service didn't work.

We spent 5 nights here holed up over the 4th of July holiday. 30amp service and water for $15 a night. Lots of mosquitoes. The lots are irregular in size & layout, but they're OK. Some will easily take big rigs, some are pull through. Bathroom wasn't clean. There were 2 or 3 homeless individuals & families living there in tents or small older trailers, they were very nice & friendly, no problem. CG across the Yellowstone River from water treatment plant & refinery but no odors, a little noise. Some train traffic but not bad.

We waited 10 minutes for the "check in" phone to respond when we entered because the number to call was busy. From the entrance our site was about 1/2 mile away and the gravel roads are TERRIBLE. You might be able to do 5mph due to many many pot holes. We found no pull throughs and most sites we saw were grass and some very large so you could manage to pull through. Due to lots of recent rain we were told to stay on one of 5 or 6 back in gravel sites to avoid getting stuck. We had to be careful where we walked due to mud. There are many long term residents and several of their sites didn't look well kept. We were attracted to the CG due to it's being an AOR park for $9 plus $3 reservation fee. Doubt we'll return.

Office/laundry/bathrooms & swimming pool are all brand new and excellent. Campground has only about 10 pull throughs in front and they are gravel and spotty grass. We saw LOTs of tent sites in the back which is quite wooded. You might be able to get a small rig back there. There was a group tenting back there with loud music but they stopped at 10pm, the quiet hour. $30 cash only was overpriced for a night's stay not using any of the campground facilities I thought.

Nice open community campground, $20 for 50amp site, no water or sewer. There is a dump station. Only 3 rigs in park this evening. Quiet & peaceful; bathrooms/showers very clean. Gravel roads and grass sites. Pull through sites are on outside of road loops, back ins are in center. Each loop has water in the center to fill your tank. No road noise, we were surprised by a train at the back of the campground, one train since we got here 3 hours ago.

We spent one night here while traveling using Passport America. We are on a large grassy hill site overlooking I69. This is a convenient overnight stop just off the expressway. The site is open so our rooftop TV dish works. No sewer hook up.

3 nights at Passport America price of 50% off. Sites are cozy but we had no problem getting 37' backed in. Our site was next to office so WiFi was excellent. Trees blocked our rooftop TV dish so we used their 20 channel cable OK. The park was full this weekend with 2 club groups here plus weekenders. 25 miles from Rky Mtn Nat Park. Sprint air card and cell phones didn't work at park but did 4 miles east entering Loveland. An OK park.

Nice small CG within walking distance to downtown and community pool. Bike/walking trail at back edge of park. Margie & Chris, who run the park, are wonderfull & very helpfull. The only thing stopping a much higher rating is the small gravel lot sizes. $30/day is the summer weekly rate. The location is excellent for access to Manitou Springs & Colorado Springs.

Good economical place to stay in Denver area. Typical fairground--all gravel & somewhat narrow pull throughs except some long termers on blacktop and a few small back-ins by the bathrooms. They were not busy so we parked the truck in the site next to us. Near expressway and manufacturing plant that stops about 5 PM. We had some nice organized horse activity to watch. Camp hosts are very friendly & helpful. They are needed to unlock site water & electricity & dump station.

This is a good CG when traveling, we have stayed overnight here twice. Located right off the expressway but noise isn't too bad. Pull through was level gravel and site was grass. Power, water & sewer all worked as expected. WiFi was good.

The park is OK but overpriced at $30 for one night beside the expressway. This is a traveling overnight only park. The office staff was very nice & helpful but we could not get the WiFi to work. They charge $2 additional for more than 2 guests.

CG is very peaceful & quiet, not busy. Site and some roads are old blacktop. Lots of trees so rooftop sat dish might not work, antenna reception good. We use Passport America for 50% off for 3 nights. 37' 5W and many sites were big enough.

Nice small campground for an overnight stay. We used Passport America. It's beside a 4 lane divided highway so there's road noise. It is a decent place to spend a night when traveling. They gave us a jar of molasses, too. We'd stay here again.

A nice sterile clean campground with all cement pull throughs, grassy sites and paved roads. There are no trees and it is very open. It looks new and well maintained. Not much to do in the area other than casino and cheap fuel at gas station on corner. The bus to and from the casino drives by often. If you gamble enough they will reduce price of site. They take Escapee 15% discount. We'll stay again but only for one or two nights as we don't gamble much.

A very nice campground. Watch out for low trees on LA435 between Abita Springs and the campground. There is lots of traffic, too. Well maintained and clean with lots of tall pine trees. Our site was long and wide. The rooftop TV dish worked in tall trees. There is a nice clubhouse, pool and hot tub. Recently sold by Western Horizons to Ocean Canyon Properties who continue to fix the campground up. We stayed here 2 weeks under ROD and will return.

Sites were not level, with very little grass, if any. They are not well maintained. There were tall trees but rooftop TV did work. The office sent us to site that was occupied. Next best site had tree in front of it across the road making backing 37' Fifth Wheel in difficult. Only stayed as it was free ROD park, we will only stay for 2 or 3 days max. Not a destination park.

As mentioned before the campground roads have many potholes with no intention to correct. There are way too many mosquitoes. It is an older park with some open and some treed sites. The best reason to stay here is the Gulf area. We would stay here again but it is not a favorite campground. They are preparing to drill for natural gas inside campground.

Neat & well kept CG, roads and pull through site paved and site has nice watered grass. Pull through site was narrow and short for a 37' 5W. Staff were pleasant & helpful. CG was full with lots of construction workers with many trucks parked on the CG roads. Beside Xway so there was a small amount of vehicle noise.

Nice park, lots of grass. 1/2 mile walk on dirt road to beach access from park. Nice indoor pool and hot tub. Roomy sites. Park is in small meadow between hills (Pacific on other side of west hills), it's beside a creek, and Hwy 101. Park is quiet. 7 or 8 miles to Lincoln, large city with just about any store you want. Survey forced $15 per night charge but it's an ROD park and cost us zero for 2 weeks.

Well laid out, large sites. Deer, turkey & jackrabbits wandering around in park. Activities in clubhouse started 5/1. Very well maintained. Not quite as friendly as other SKP coops. Dark at night and VERY quiet. Nice place.

We are staying here a month. Good access to this area of AZ, but noisy due to being between I8 and I10, plus a railroad. Park roads and sites are all dirt/stone so can be muddy if it rains, and dusty if windy. We are in the desert. Nice thing is the sites are irregular, not the usual parallel to each other. Sites are large. Office workers are friendly. Not a lot of organized activities. No charge to wash units but this has to be done in one location close to office. We would stay here again.

Very nice clean park, large sites with concrete pads & patios with table. Lots of grass, shrubs, & some trees. Indoor pool was good. Hot tub had hot water, but no air being injected. Lots of activities during winter, everyone is friendly. Five miles from Gulf, lots of restaurants, shopping, etc nearby. One hour from Mobile, less to Pensacola. Very acceptable monthly rate. We'll be back for 3 or 4 months next winter.
