Park Ridge RV Campground

My husband are traveling cross-country from California along Highway 40. Park Ridge RV Campground is our fourth stop and the best so far. They are nestled by a hillside with access to Lee Creek which might be full of fish for all we know. It is very serene here and the leaves are beginning to pop on the pecan trees.

They have a little country store that is really nice. Everyone here is very friendly and the proprietors live on the premises.

Laundry and shower facilities are well kept. It is a few blocks off Hwy 40 but oh, so quiet. Loads of birds.

Full Hook-ups, and pull-through sites. I would love to be able to have stayed longer but we will definitely come back!
