Very gracious host. The RV parking spot is a little uneven and in the grass, but not an issue as I had boards to put under the jacks. if I remember correctly the host also mentioned he had some boards if needed. The electric and water were conveniently located. The site overlooked a large will maintained lawn. There was a nice fire pit with plenty of firewood, We had excellent internet coverage from the AT&T towers. The property is located on the edge of a quit town with a lot of small shops. The first night we ate at Los Reyes which had excellent Mexican food.

My kids and I stayed 2 nights, while passing through Illinois. Our stay was approved quickly, there was great communication, and we were met outside when we pulled up. The site was fairly level, clean and private and we had plenty of room for our car as well as our 33' motorhome. He helped us backup and repeatedly told us to let him know if we needed anything. Access to electric and water was amazing and greatly appreciated. We stay at a lot of campgrounds, but I rested so much better here and felt safe. We also had a nice area to walk our dogs in. Great hosts! Thank you 😊
