Large level slabs. Each space has a good sized grass area. Working washers and dryers in the laundry room. There's a clean working shower and water closet in the laundry room area. Good wifi for streaming. Grass is kept cut. I felt very safe and secure here. Convenient location too. Most people walk their pets on leashes and actually clean up after them. I enjoyed my stay. Water, sewer, electric, wifi, trash, and grass cutting are all provided by the RV park. If I'm back in the area, I'll be staying at Nelson's again.

Anna in the office is extremely nice. FYI, park is next to Bunge Grain Elevator. This means your RV and vehicles will be completely covered in dust, sometimes a bad smell emanates from there and when the elevator is running you can hear it when outside. However, I'm not removing stars because the park has no control over this, just something to be aware of. Also, if you're not used to the trucks that spray for mosquitos, they do make rounds within the park at night but not nightly. I grew up in Metairie so I'm used to this, just another FYI and spraying is a necessity. All spaces are concrete, level and wide with full hookups. Enough grass space between sites so you don't feel claustrophobic. Plenty of space to park multiple cars. All spots are back in. The center road between both sides of the sites is wide and we had no problem backing our 37' motorhome into it's site. Not many trees. Many long term people. Laundry on site and clean, requires a code to access. The grounds are extremely well maintained. Usually gated with a code but I think the opener needed maintenance when I was there but I felt safe. One of the sites has their area decorated nicely. Quiet people within the park. Also want to point out you can barely hear the trains. I've stayed in other parks along both sides of the river and the train noise is horrendous. If you take I-310 and notice the switching station this may concern you but the train noise is negligible. Anna did tell me the park is usually full.

Great quiet, well maintained and clean park. Easily the nicest park in the area, with nice big concrete slabs and lots of walking areas. The owner, Anna, is very nice and so is everyone else that helps to run the park. I feel safe here with my family and know that if we have any issues we can give them a call or text and it will be resolved. I highly recommend this park if you are in the area.

This is by far one of the cleanest parks we've stayed in. The concrete slabs are oversized and the laundry facilities are so nice. When we called for reservations Anna was very prompt and friendly with responding. I would highly recommend this park to anyone looking to stay in that area.
