Sites near rr tracks so a little noisey. Adequate flush toilets nearby. Need more trash containers close but have to drive it a couple of blocks. There is no electric hookups. Price still zero first night then 20 bucks a night after that. First come first served. Sign says call to check in only answer machine on Sunday. Gravel packed wide spaces with lush grass all around. Great for kids and pets. Rainy weather for use but no fear of mud or getting stuck. Lots of fast food about 1.5 mi into town.

We just needed a place for a night as we were passing through and it was perfect for that. And it was on a Saturday night. Easy to get to, FREE, convenient, nice spots- solid ground, not muddy.

It was dark when we pulled in so had to get out and find pedestal for hookups, but no big deal. Train is real loud, but didn't go through often. Next morning dumped our tanks for free and were on our way. We'd stop again if in the area.

Stopped for some overnight truck-bed camping. Train noise is a factor since the park is right next to a railroad track. Toilet is an "emergency use only" situation.

Stopped for some overnight truck-bed camping. Train noise is a factor since the park is right next to a railroad track. Toilet is an "emergency use only" situation. The light bulb in the bathroom was burnt out when we arrived at midnight, so we had to use our cell phones to take a leak. Kind of hard to locate the electrical outlets in the dark but we found one, and it worked great for our quick stopover. Not sure I'd recommend staying several days here, but for a quick overnight stop, it's "OK".

Three spots where you can get electric hookup and there is a dump station.
Site is free for the first night but $20 a night after that. We ended up staying a second night because of the high winds.
The city Park across the street was awesome. Was looking forward to getting a shower at the aquatic center but it was closed.

Large relatively flat grass lot between baseball fields, aquatic park and train tracks.
In our opinion it’s not worth $20 a night maybe $10. That’s why we only stayed 2.
There is a dump station.

There was a restroom and there is electrical hookups if desired. There's an aquatic park across the street. And the city park itself is really cute with a great playground and walking paths with a cute stream running through the middle.
It is near train tracks but there isn't too many trains that go by.
The restroom was fairly clean flush toilet and a sink no mirror.
There were softball games going on the night we stayed so the park filled up with cars there was only one other camper besides ourselves.

Free 30amp hookup (looks like brand new wiring and outlets. 50A, 240V available too) 4 channels without even raising my antenna (ION, Grit, Bounce and whatever Dr Oz is on). Free dump. Potable water?? (No signage). Beautiful park next door. (So nice to see ball players out again!). And indoor pool with open swim 1-7pm and again 8-9am. For $3/hr. It was worth the $3 for the long hot shower. I was the only person in the whole facility except for the lifeguard. And I only swam about 20 minutes and he offered me $2.50 back! I told him to keep it. I’d give almost anything if my town had a pool of any sort!
Arrived early (3:30pm) and there was one class A using the dump station and then he left. So far I’m the only one here. A few cars coming in (5:30pm) and parking here but there is a ball field right behind me so maybe there is a game or practice tonight. (Looks like maybe a ladies team).
I’ve read about the trains but have not heard/seen any. Maybe they only run at night? Walmart 2 miles away.
Site quality? It’s just an open field but gravel spots and grass.

Large field that will accommodate any size RV. Has electric for about 4 RVs the rest would boondock. Hard to determine where the RV spots are but we were the only one. Water/restrooms closed due to cold. First night is free/$20 each night after. Is next to a nice park with the city pool. Negative is it is next to RR but not too bad.
