A brand new small, quiet campground with five walk-in tent sites. Part of the Cable Town Park. Close walking distance to restaurants, groceries, laundromat and hardware. Perfect for families, touring cyclists, and visitors in general.
Pickleball is growing in popularity in the area. The Cable Town Park has two tennis/pickleball courts. You can use the courts anytime you wish. A local group meets every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 10:30 AM, and welcomes anyone who wants to play. There's another group that meets Mondays at 5:30 PM. Anyone is welcome to join in and free loaner equipment is available, so that you can try it out. Just another reason to visit the Park!
Would not recommend for a peaceful rest. Nice set up, but not quiet. We were hoping to get a good sleep before a race but there were people on the playground late being obnoxious/loud vehicles and a band playing downtown until midnight (October days I guess). 😳😳 We would have left but it was raining (and dark). We should have went to the national forest - it would have been quiet and free.
For some reason the spotlight turns on between 9:30 pm and 12am. It's incredibly bright and ruins the otherwise relaxing nature of this site.
This is a great place to show up with no plans, first come first serve. There are a lot of dead trees by the sites that need to be cleared up.
It's next to a playground so it might be noisy but it's not a deal breaker. What is a deal breaker is that they turn on these floodlights aimed at the campsites from 10pm to midnight and make it really hard to sleep.
I would not recommend it unless it is your last resort, those lights are no joke.
