Description:  Reviewed several times in the past.  We stayed on our usual site (P8).  I’m glad we made reservations a few days ahead because this place has been packed just about every night.  Several more sites are now set aside for long term occupants who work temporarily in the area.  They are kept clean but it does feel different here since it’s crowded even during the day.

Activities:  This was a relaxing few weeks visiting with family.  We took Gin’s mom to the outlets in Smithfield one day and we dropped in to visit with our one-time neighbor Kelly who works at the Chamber of Commerce building there.  It was nice to catch up with her.  My mom is doing pretty darn good at the age of 87.  I hope I have her longevity genes.  Our neighbors from Cedar Key (Dave and Julie) live in Bracey, Va. came by for a nice visit one day.

Description:  Located about 5 miles east of I-95 exit 77, this park is set in the quiet countryside.  There are a few well maintained FHU permanent sites in the back of this Mom and Pop park and a few pull-thrus near the office.  Roadways and sites are packed gravel.  We stayed on site 5 which was w/e (50A) on a concrete pad right next to the office.  A couple of ducks stay on the fishing pond.  Laundry and propane sales on the property.

Activities:  Good park to stroll around in.  We enjoyed this quiet stopover.  PPA not valid on Friday or Saturday night.

Trash and Recycle:  A couple of dumpsters in the park but no recycling noticed.
