Jones High Country RV Park

We pulled in mid-afternoon and there was one rig ahead of us. There was an "Open" sign on the office door, but the door was locked and no one was around. In a box on the wall of the office are registration forms and a sign gives the rates and instructions for picking out a spot. It's $30 for a hook-up site or $25 if you have Good Sam. We picked out a site, filled out the information, put $25 in the envelope and dropped it in the slot in the door. And that was that as far as customer service went. We never saw an employe the entire time we were there, but somebody must do something sometime because the restrooms were clean and the laundry room appeared to be in good condition. This place had the most invisible management of any RV park we've ever stayed at.

We'd stay here again. It was pretty basic, but clean and quiet and very easy to access form the freeway.

We arrived on a Saturday at 1pm and no one was in the office to greet us. We called the number provided and they told us to fill out a form and submit payment for our stay. We were also told to park wherever we wanted, which felt really weird. I know it's typical to not be greeted when checking in, but that's usually if you arrive at night, not the middle of a weekend. Most of the campground had full-timers parked there, so the available spots were few. We pulled into one spot on the end, but the neutral side of the 30 amp plug was energized and the 50 amp outlet was also mis-wired. So we had to move into a spot right up next to our neighbor, which was a bit tight - especially when a HUGE fifth wheel pulled up into the spot we had vacated the next day and was nearly on top of us.

We never saw anyone from management stop by our spot or anyone we could tell about the faulty wiring at the power pedestal next to us.

The WiFi barely worked.

A few passing trains were somewhat noisy, but they were a few miles away. So it wasn't too bad.

No recycling available.

This park looks like it could have been a KOA at one time. It's an older park and shows its age but it was clean, quiet, and well priced. Our $25 rate was based on the Good Sam rate for 30 amp pull-through. The regular rate was $30. If the park were full, it would be snug, but since we were early in the season, we had empty spaces on both sides of us.

The pluses were the price, the quiet location, easy access, clean restrooms with good showers, and their laundry facility.

The minuses were moving from our first spot because the power didn't work, the front entrance looks a bit sketchy because of the diesel truck repair facility next door, and the challenge of getting in contact with them. It may have been because of it being early in the season, but both e-mails and phone calls would go unanswered unless you got lucky and someone actually answered the phone. We were in the park for over 24 hours before we were able to register because the office was closed (on a Friday.) None, the less, I'd stay again in a heartbeat.

I was using an AT&T Mobley in the truck for internet access. It was fast, but I don't know how many bars. I never booted the Verizon hotspot to try it.
