1 night at Gotta Getaway RV Park

Really pretty, well taken care of place. Level site worth a wood deck. Host was helpful and friendly. Lots of permanent residents had really fun Halloween decorations. We thought we were getting away from the Interstate to a quieter spot but didn't realize that it was right of of a busy highway and there was a lot of truck noise. I used earplugs and it didn't bother me.

The tent site was super clean and easy to get to. Check in was easy. The site was by other people in campers/RV’s. Shower house and bathrooms were super clean and super nice, also a short walk from camp site.

The camp was well maintained, the pool was pristine The grass campsite could have been a problem in rain you should make sure you have blocks. The shower area was absolutely fantastic. We will definitely stay there again. The cost was moderately priced
