2 nights at 1 RV Spot In The Castle Mountains

What a wonderful spot to relax and enjoy the tranquility of a beautiful pastoral scene. On top of that the hosts, Vicki & Roger, were absolutely amazing. Very accommodating and there to help any way they could. Talking to them felt like talking to old friends. We were amazed at the history of their ranch as well as the history of Castle Town. If we head that way again, we will for sure stay at their wonderful place and be sure to visit with our old new friends.
