Something not right?

Description

*Overnight camping/parking is NOT available at this location.
.....
This is a park that is open 24 hours. The main entrance has a parking lot and restrooms. There is an upper lot that gets locked at night. And another lot to the west. I stayed the night in the main first lot. There are no "no parking" "no overnight" signs. The lot is well lit, I felt very safe. There are "no dog" signs near the restrooms and I didn't check to see if restrooms are 24 hours or not. I would stay again.

Report Check-In

We parked below the gates that close at 11pm. The parking lot was almost empty and we were in a semi-stealthy camper van- Got a knock at 11pm by a security guard. Ended up going to the Lowe's.

Report Check-In

Got a knock at 10pm on the dot from park patrol saying park closed at 11 and we we’re good until then but had to go. We we’re just in the parking lot outside the gate. Saw lots of reviews saying they got by for a night so thought we’d try our luck but nope. Went to the local Lowes instead

Report Check-In

Stealth camped in our van for one night. Clean bathrooms, beautiful park with trails. Couldn't have been any better!

Report Check-In

well lit parking lot in front of park. stealth camped in our van, there was 2 other vans that stayed the night. bathrooms were closed.

Report Check-In

as described, no one disturbed us. restrooms are closed at night ( after 9 o' clock) and were open early in the morning. just a good place to stay.

Report Check-In

Came in late at 11pm and was able to stay one night. Quiet and felt safe overnight, we parked on the western most parking area near the restrooms. There is a gate that was closed when we came in but open early in the morning (park staff must have seen us and didn’t worry). Nice spot for an overnight if you are passing through.

Report Check-In

Great spot for a night. We got there after it was dark (around 10pm) and the janitor was locking up the bathrooms. We didn’t have any issues with cell service and no knocks. There was a bit of traffic noise but nothing a pair of ear plugs can’t hide!

Report Check-In

As others have described, this was a nice, clean, and relatively quiet place to park for one night. We parked at the west lot, before you reach the gate. We could hear some traffic through the night but not loud. At dawn we were awakened by the sound of a garbage truck. I looked out our back window and saw the trash collector peering closely at our rig, but he didn’t bother us. Later in the morning the park filled up with families picnicking and youth soccer games, but at night we had the place to ourselves.

Report Check-In

Very nice park! Clean, well-lit and pretty quiet. We parked in the first lot and had another campervan nearby for the night. Second lot had a sign saying the gate would be closed every night at 10 pm, but it stayed open all night. We stayed with our two dogs and saw plenty of people walking dogs in the morning. Previous descriptions are still accurate. We felt safe and would definitely stay again.

Report Check-In

this place was perfect for truck camper, dog, and I to sleep. it is exactly as described, seems safe, and quiet, off the main business center drag. *the cellphone service isn't that great, could text and call but slow data.*. Very pretty parking lot & park!

Report Check-In

We parked in the western lot below the gate. That gate locks the upper lot, but if you park in the lot below, you’ll be fine. Bathrooms are clean & open in the morning. pretty uneventful, which is a good thing—no noisy traffic, no people wandering through the lot. However, we did receive a “parking violation” stating not to be parked there longer than 24 hours, or else we’d be towed, not an actual ticket. Good spot for one night.

Report Check-In

Really quiet spot under the lights, we parked in the main parking lot near the rest rooms. No one bothered us. Woke to a foggy morning only one in the lot. Not much noise from the Highway. Clean large men’s room.

Report Check-In

Stayed for one night in main lot. Had a officer knock around 11:00 to let me know that the park is closed, but staying in the parking lot okay. Quiet area well lit up and safe. Bathrooms available but we didn’t use
