RV Camping & Setup Tips

• Confirm your RV length and whether your site is pull-through or back-in - some sites allow up to ~70 feet. :contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}
• Check for full hookups (water/sewer/electric). While many sites have full hookups, there are also “water/electric” only or “electric only” sites. :contentReference[oaicite:11]{index=11}
• Reserve in advance for weekends or holiday stretches - this location fills up due to its travel-corridor position. Reviews note solid amenities but the usual “road noise” from the nearby freeway. :contentReference[oaicite:12]{index=12}
• If you have pets, request a “Paw Pen” patio site (fenced small area for your dog). Great value for dog-owners. :contentReference[oaicite:13]{index=13}
• Check arrival & departure times: check-in 2:00 pm, check-out 11:00 am. :contentReference[oaicite:14]{index=14}
