Host met us upon arrival, even though it was late and rainy! Very helpful with setting us up and information. Welcomed and invited us to stay again ... which we will if we’re in the area again.
Passing through the area and this was a great place to be able to park my camper and tow vehicle for the night.
Host was super at communication and offered lots of sightseeing options. I was sad we didn't get to spend more time with him as we were just spending the night before moving on. Site is great and as described. He met us there to make sure we got parked alright and was very friendly. I hope we can come back when we have more time to spend. Thanks!
We enjoyed staying one night at Shaven's site. They are very kind people. They also gave us interesting suggestions in visiting Notre Dame University campus. Many thanks!
We wish to see them again.
