and 5 pavilions with electrical outlets and BBQ pits at each site, ready for rental.

There are 2 playgrounds here, across the parking lot from each other. This playground is rather small. There are 2 baby swings and one play structure. It has a couple of slides, a rock wall, and some bars and poles. This is best suited for toddlers.















 I didn't go into the restrooms, so I don't know what condition they are in.
