Magnus Goes Home to Thor, Day 3

Saturday, October 26 2024

Lovely drive through St Louis, except we had a misunderstanding about the road to take.


 And on to Indiana.  Bah.

 

Lake Haven Resort in Indianapolis -- We spent the night there because it was highly reviewed, convenient, and not too expensive. But, yuck!  Like a CAFO for RVs.  Here's my review.


 

Review: Lake Haven RV Resort
$56 site 93   gravel (I think), pull-thru, only barely long enough
Like staying in a motel room but with your own bed

Small RV park on the outskirts of Indianapolis. Conveniently located to all the Indianapolis stuff. Very nice and very efficient management; it was okay for an overnight stop for us.

Everything worked fine--water, sewer, 50-amp electricity--and was set up correctly. The pull-thru site was easy to get in and out of and the little driveways were well-labeled and only a little bit tight. Our site was just the right length for our 35' Class A and toad.

There was a picnic table and there were fire rings scattered throughout the park, so if we'd wanted a fire that would have been good. We didn't use the laundry or bathrooms.

But, yuck. It was extremely crowded and there was no breathing room at all. There were a few trees here and there, plus a little (mostly dry) pond by our site.  I didn't check out the dog park, but I didn't see any doggie relief stations--if there were any, they were near it.  There didn't seem to be any amenities or anything fun going on. There was a playground on the map, but it was tiny and nobody was using it.  In fact, I don't think I saw more than a couple of children around.  Most people seemed to park, go inside their RV, and stay there.  

Good for an overnight, but definitely not a destination.

 

The pond

 Our site was on the edge looking toward the pond,


But looking in the other direction, many, many RVs.
