We love it here. The office staff and maintenance crew are great and work hard to keep it nice
I have lived here since 2011, over 14 years. Very quiet and safe. Never had anything stolen from my space. Everyone watches out for each other. Anyone who was evicted had it done for a reason, there is not a shred of racism in management.
I'm quite sure the evicted people probably needed to be evicted. I've stayed here off and on for extended periods (4 - 10 months at a time) for the past 5 years for work. The office staff is always kind, courteous, and helpful. The park is clean and always quiet. I've stayed at all three parks and never had a bad experience. The comment about the rent increasing annually by $50 each year is false. In the past 5 years the rent went up once by $50 which is comparable to all parks I've checked in the area that I would feel safe staying at. The metered electricity seems reasonable. I stayed at another park nearby the first time I was up there and had to pay all electricity which was about $90 - $100 a month. This park credits the first $50 to your electricity. My power bill at the park runs $45 - $50 a month which would be inline with the previous park with no credit. Not sure why someone would complain about other people getting up and leaving early. This happens at any park. I stay in parks around the country for fishing trips. I hear people leaving from 5 AM till 8 AM all morning every morning so this complaint isn't legit either. There's actually less noise in the early morning hours here. They're strict about the water in the winter for good reason. It freezes up there people. If your connection hoses aren't insulated and heat traced they'll disconnect your water hose. They actually will put a note on your door 3-4 days prior to a freeze event as a reminder. This isn't mean or rude, it's a NECESSITY!!! people. Grow up. Even an insulated line at low teens to single digit temps will freeze if it's not heat traced. Spend the $30 and get a heat trace line and quit complaining. I would be thankful if they disconnected mine. I had an older hose go bad on me just before a freeze, disconnected it and hooked up a new one. Left the old one laying next to the new one. When I got back to the RV that evening they had gone around checking everyone's hose for insulation and heat tracing kindly rolled up my old hose and placed it under the RV. I'd say that's pretty dang courteous. You're 10 minutes from major grocery chains, restaurants, auto parts stores, Tractor supply (for propane), Cabela's (for therapy), and only about 25 - 30 minutes from Dallas. For an RV park I'd say that's pretty convenient.
Made a reservation one month out for Labor Day weekend, we arrived on Sunday afternoon and nobody was in the office. Called all three numbers available and nobody answered my multiple calls. We parked in an empty spot and plugged, no power and our rv was reading 90+. Had to stay in a hotel for two nights and continued to try to get a hold of someone. Tuesday morning (after the holiday weekend) I got ahold of someone in the office and she said the electric box was fine, that it was our surge protector. Ended up the electric box needed to be replaced, not our surge protector! The people in the office were very apologetic and made sure to not charge us for the two nights we couldn’t sleep in our rv. The lot was clean but noisy with trucks leaving at 7am to work. Would not stay here again but made the best of it.
This place is GREAT! The staff. The lots. Everything is great! Laundry on site. No showers or bathrooms but as long as you don't NEED them, it is NOT a problem. Mr. And Mrs. Lafon are two of the most genuinely kind people I have ever met! Stay for a day or for a lifetime! You'll love it here!!
