It's nice, but, not really for RV's. Tent spots only, next to a picnic table. There is a modern bathroom, for water. I didn't see any elec. hookup.

It's too far off the highway to make it worthwhile for RV rigs.

I arrived at about 9:45, just after nightfall, on a Sunday. Lots of people were still in the park, plenty of kids included.

I arrived at about 9:45, just after nightfall, on a Sunday. Lots of people were still in the park, plenty of kids included. I couldn't find any signs about where the camping area was, exactly, although I did see one large tent set up near the playground. The lots had a fair amount of trash; apparently, the week-end there had been very busy. I used the restroom while there, and found a large puddle of standing water on the floor. Then, while I was starting to set up my tent, I noticed that several cars either drove through the park or just rolled in, turned around in the parking lot, then left.
Overall, I did not expect a quiet, restful night, here, so I put my gear back into my car and drove over to Seabee Park, instead.

Clean facility with working water/electric hook-ups. Local people there late at night made noise, but simmered down around 10pm.
Sheriff on duty made regular visits and was extremely helpful (yellow jacket spray down).
10/10 will absolutely stay again if in the area.
Kanevo would stay here again

We arrived here around 4pm, 6/28. Quite a few locals & kids enjoying swimming & fishing. We decided to go into town for supper, and when we returned around 7, the place was near deserted.
We picked our spot, backed up to the water, and the strong southerly wind was feeling good. It was cool enough (after a 100* day) to sleep comfortably. There were a few local youngsters came & went until about 11pm, but quiet thereafter.
My only complaint, the City sign outlines the rules, one being camping in designated areas only. The problem was, we found no parking areas designated for camping. The next morning, a city employee was cleaning the area, and when asked about camping... he said folks do it all the time, plus there are usually bank fishermen there all night.
Flush toilets were conveniently placed, and clean. All paved road access, a lack of shade trees in most spots, but covered tables were available.
