Redding RV Park

We arrived here on June 29, 2012, and will stay here to rest for 4 days.  We are finally back in California (Redding California).  We stopped here to visit Shasta Lake, one of California's largest lakes.  The lake is full.  Last year the lake was a good 100 feet lower.  The weather here is more to our liking, 89 degrees.  I will store my sweater & jacket until we hit Lake Tahoe.  This is a very nice park.  Clean and well taken care of.  There is a small swimming pool on the property and a clubhouse that I did not tour.  All sites have full hookups and 50 amp electric.  We were assigned a pull through site which was plenty long enough, maybe 70 feet, but very narrow.  We had the widest lot in the tract, most will not accomodate a picnic table.  All driving surfaces including parking pads are asphalt and look to be pretty new, but camping pads are only 10 foot wide and another 4 to 5 feet of grass till you greet your neighbor.  This campground is located next to the 5 freeway and generates traffic noise all day and night.  They also provide free internet access which is very good.  I paid $30 per night with RPI and Good Sam discounts.  This is located in Redding with all shopping and restaurants nearby.  We dined at Olive Garden yesterday just 2 miles from the park.  I would stay here again.  I rate this park P***.
