Nice to have the lot paved instead of the gravel it used to have. Quiet place after dark.

Report Check-In

This was an excellent stop for the night. There was only one other RV here. The paved lot was wonderful with all the rain we’ve had. There is also a paved walking path along the river. It was great for our dog to get some sniffies in. Also, there are plenty of trash bins. Unfortunately, the museum doesn’t open until 10 am at this time of year, and we had to leave early. There are also some interesting shops nearby. This town is worth a visit.

Place is open! 2 other RVs here tonight.

Report Check-In

Pretty full tonight. Several spots taken by vehicles that almost look more like construction site rigs than RVs. I think we got the last available site tonight.

Strange. We just came in and there was no issue regarding parking. Went in to verify we could park for the night. We're planning to visit in the morning.

Report Check-In

Parking lot is now paved and striped for RV parking.

Employee at the Prison Cow Ice Cream Shop advised RVs are welcome to overnight.

Prison Museum recommended.

Report Check-In

Lot is currently closed with multiple signs. There’s a rodeo/fair going on so unsure if it’s temporary for that or permanent.

Report Check-In

Definitely stay and visit the museums! Many interesting exhibits. Look for the RV parking signs by the railroad cars.

It was nice and quiet after 9pm. Would stay again.

Report Check-In

Quiet gravel parking lot, mostly level, just off a main commercial street. A motel, Cellblock Tavern, Kaffinator Cafe (very good), Prison Cow ice cream kiosk, supermarket and 24 hour laundry are all nearby. There are 2 big train engines in the parking lot. Just one other campervan is here tonight.

Report Check-In

Very welcoming staff for a free quiet overnight.

Near the street, but pretty quiet road. Park amongst old railway cars and next door to the prison museum. Large trash cans available.
