Lived here for two years now and it's so quiet. We love the pond that's full of turtles, the squirrel you can feed. Can't imagine living anywhere else.

A month ago I updated the stars to 4, however today I will updated the stars to 5 with this much needed and delayed addition: We deal with a ton of local rv parks. Don-Ell was previously owned by a person who seemed overwhelmed by the tasks (understandably). It has been purchased since my original review and we have receive a lot of good feedback from our customers in the park. *The grounds are well kept *Staff is responsive to needs of the residents and customers in a timely manner *the atmosphere is quiet, there is a beautiful pond in the back and the shade of the trees are a rare treat in this area. *the rates are affordable which is much appreciated in this economy. I will apologize to the new owners for not being more prompt in an update and thank them for bringing it to my husbands…

Love this place! The owners make you feel right at home. The cabins are a perfect place to lay your head after a day on the water. Also don't forget they have a turtle pond in the back (I love turtles)! We will visit again soon.
