Go if

RV campers who want urban convenience with a quirky setting. Full hookups, supplies under a mile away, and fall weekends bring low-key events like mustang adoptions and art fairs worth strolling through with dogs.

Skip if

Tent campers should call ahead before booking. At least one reviewer was told mid-stay to take their tent down, and the site layout explicitly doesn't list tent camping as a supported site type.
