These experiences along with the rising cost of housing and full campgrounds, have motivated us to build our quiet, private, and safe community. We welcome all those who choose to live by the words "Home is where you park it." Oak Grove offers many stay options, full hookups, and more. Make no fuss, come stay with us at your home away from home!
