I called today and since we were arriving after their office closed I prepaid $25 over the phone, they taped the paperwork and we signed it when we got here. We received our receipt via email.
We were told to pick a spot. We picked a site close to the the comfort station (on the map at the office building #9, I have incuded a picture of it) with no tree cover since we wanted to use Starlink. We ended up parking behind their grandstand.
We had our choice of 50/30/15 amps. There were various water spigots too.
The dump station is right next to the comfort station.
I did go into the comfort station to see (we are self contained). It looked like there were 5 or so shower stalls, many more toilets and some sinks. There were also 2 unisex handicapped shower/bathroom combos unlocked....
We did hear a train, but it was not constant. AND no interstate noise!!!
We could have set up under some nice shade trees. Besides us there was 1 bumper pull camper and near the entrance two horsetrailer/campers with horses at our arrival.
