If you enjoy being watched 24/7, scrutinized for your every move and action, and having cameras pointed in your windows, this is the place for you! Not only are the rules of this establishment encroaching on your right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, several of them are in fact illegal!
If you're considering a short-term stay, this place is (probably) not too terrible, as the short term lots are actually grassy, pull through lots, near the river, and well spaced out. You know, like everyone who RVs hopes to find.
However, if you want to stay long term, know you will be placed in an extremely narrow, back-in only, harsh gravel lot, right up against your neighbor, and be disallowed from having ANY personal items outside your home. No grills, or even potted plants.
Also, events are often held in the park on weekends, and during that time YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO LEAVE YOUR RV SPACE. Heaven forbid your dog needs to pee, as you won't be allowed in the grass. (We were evicted for such an offence.) You will also not receive any forewarning, and the "guest" parking for these events is right next to the long term RV area, meaning they exit their cars and walk right through your space.
To top it all off, this park has no septic. And rather than allowing you to chose what service will come out and pump your tanks, the manager only allows one service in the park. And it costs $175 to pump. Your only other option is to hitch up, drive to the other side of Monroe, and find the super-obscure RV dump site in the fair grounds. This costs $6 but there is of course the pain and suffering of hitching up, struggling to get out of the park, driving overly slow through town, and through a bumpy and pot-holed gravel lot, then to dump, make it all the way back, and struggle to weasel your way back into your spot. It's not fun. And you better hope that the day you intend to dump doesn't fall on the same day as an event, because you will not be able to get out. But don't worry, there's absolutely no calendar of events, so you'll never be able to know!
Another fun perk of this park is that you must have your tow vehicle on site. And are allowed one other space to park. So if you're a couple and your truck isn't a daily driver, you're screwed. Even parking your other daily driver for a short time to exchange cars and park the other off-site is punishable by eviction.
Lastly, if something about your RV is not up to snuff, such as, for example, your hose is just a little bit short and you need to buy an extension, but are waiting for payday, rather than allowing you time to fix it, the management will come right over and start disconnecting your water hose and replacing it with their own. Not sure if it's new, clean, moldy, or what, but now it's fixed!
Guys, just don't go here. It's not worth $600 a month to be depressed about where you live. Plus, it's next to a really loud highway, and this park has a ton of alarms on the gate that are tripped by the wind blowing and blare all night long. read more
