What a nice RV Park in Jackson California. We had 14 rigs at this ou;ng in the Gold Country. What a surprise a?er checking in, we were told to pull forward and then dumped our holding tanks and were given chemicals for our tanks. All of the spaces were very well maintained and surrounded with green grass. All of our rigs were within walking distance of the; office, showers, pool, miniature golf course, and community room. The community room had hot coffee available daily. Your No Host, sponsored Happy Hour and Heavy Appe;zers on the first night. Ernie and Debbie came a day early and shared lots of info about; the park, casino, shuqles, and what to see and do in Gold Country. The Group decided that they would tour on their own and just have a?ernoon in prompt to gatherings near their rigs. Several of our members played golf,some went wine touring and others just toured and shopped. A large group got together for a dinner at a near- by 1921 old restaurant. What a great dinner. Another nice surprise, the Reserva;on Gas Sta;on had an RV car wash for only 30. All in all, everyone enjoyed a NO HOST Rally and wanted to try it again.i for one, would be very happy to go back to this 5 Star Park. One of your NO HOSTS, repor;ng.
