We had a nice visit with our hosts. They are really interesting and have great travel/RV stories! It was enjoyable to relax outside after a day on the road and get lovin’ from cute little Milo the dog. The site is level and the 4-stars is probably more due to our inexperience with maneuvering in tight spots. But after a couple runs at it, we were in. Peaceful and beautiful spot!

Ne pas rentrer dans l'entrée du HH en arrivant, continuer devant vous pour aller vous virez dans la prochaine intersection. Vous revenez en vous stationnant back in cela va vous aider grandement. C'est pas évident si vous êtes un débutant pour reculer avec votre vr. Belle endroit pour la pause sur la Natchez Trail. Merci aux hôtes
