They were closed when we arrived but paid $20 in am at office. Friendly staff and dog😀 There is train noise as you’re close to a RR yard. But a great find.

Great location if you are passing through and need power hookup. Sewer dump is also easy access, but no hookup at each site.
This is our second time staying here, 3 nights in 2021 and 2 nights this year (2022). You can expect light traffic cutting through the fair grounds all throughout the night.
Note — there is a homeless shelter ministry “Crossroads Mission” across the street. Maybe 300-400 yards from the camp area. I’ve noticed people standing around outside, late into the night, but haven’t had any problems. Nor have I seen people wandering around the fairgrounds.
Power — during this stay (July 2022) I did have some issues with the 50A power hookup. I kept getting L1 excess voltage errors, but I was able to get voltage normalized.

Pulled in on 6/18 for a quick overnight - no power, but sign on office door requests $15 payment for parking regardless - no biggie, but wanted to post so others would be aware that there is not any power available.

Stayed here one night as a pass through. $15 first come first served, no marked sites but you pull up to a light pole and there are 1-50 amp, 2 -30 amp, & 1-110 plug to use off the same panel. There is water nearby and a dump station. You pay on the honor system at a black box on the wall at the fair ground office. Lots of street noise... more

Lots of empty space.

We parked at (N40.71014, W99.06435). Somewhat noisy because of traffic on neighboring roads, but very pleasant. There is a dump near the entrance to the fairgrounds. Stayed 2 nights. Oct 2020.
