> WRONG DESCRIPTION AND MISLEADING PHOTOGRAPHS. NOT riverside camping. I arrived at the end of the cancellation period, and was disappointed about the fact that it is NOT A RIVERSIDE campsite. But, I decided to let it go. Then, the trains started coming non-stop, with loud blaring horns, and I was told they go all night. The description DID have a warning, something like: There is a train, so if you don't like trains, this isn't your camp site. Wow. Unbelievable. The train is right across the road, right near an intersection, and it is constant. Completely inappropriate for a camp site.
