I am so happy that you enjoyed your stay and thank you so much for your kind review. We are a small family owned business with my two brothers and myself all chipping in to help my elderly folks run and manage this park that they have had for 38 years. It has been a tough couple of years first with Covid regulations that shut down our bath house then with Hurricane Ian flooding our property with 6-8 feet of water destroying our parents house aka the park office. My brothers have done a fantastic job with the clean up efforts with the 10 mobile homes that were destroyed that needed to be hauled away and all the floating debris from the surrounding area.

This is what happens when you have someone upset that they couldn't extend there stay because we are full. But to respond to his review, Two family members live on-site and the site manager who is also a family member lives in our other RV Park. Yes, the voice component of our phone system has been down since the hurricane but we have been responding quickly to text messages and email in hours not days. Also we have been working on-site and could be easily approached. All electrical services have been cleared by a licensed electrician prior to reopening in January 2023. If there were issues, it wasn't on our end. Yes we were hit hard by the hurricane but our family pulled together and the park looks fantastic. There are drone photos posted on our website to show how great it looks. Plus we added several dump truck loads of stone to better level and drain the sites.

Thank you for your review. Yes the cleanup efforts from the hurricane did take longer for the county and FEMA to remove the debris from our park nd the surrounding area. The county landfills were full and the debris had to be trucked to other counties. We are a small family business but we pulled together and have done a great job with the recovery efforts. Drone photos of the post hurricane cleanup efforts are located on our website.

Thank you for your review. Yes the sites have fresh gravel as part of the post hurricane cleanup efforts. All electrical services were cleared by a licensed electrician before we reopened in January 2023. We are unware of generator running all night. We would have said something to that guest. Yes we are a "Zero Amenity" RV Park. We have that posted on our website in several locations. Our office was actually completely destroyed by the hurricane. Our phone system was damaged by the flooding waters but we have been on top of any emails that were sent by our guest. We are a small family business but we pulled together and have done a great job with the recovery efforts. Drone photos of the post hurricane cleanup efforts are located on our website.
