Guernsey State Park

We arrived here on July 8 for 2 nights.  Although they have electric and water sites, we opted to dry camp here since our water tank was full and holding tanks were empty.  We were assigned a pull through with lake view.  We did use jacks to level the coach but site was relatively level.  The lake was being drawn down while we were here and we had the campground to ourselves except one other camper.  We did not go down to the water as it was all mud.  In two days the lake turned into a river because the lake must be very shallow.  The campground and road leading to campground was gravel and very dusty.  Our clean motorhome and toad were covered with dust.  We traveled through a thunderstorm when we left and it cleaned both vehicles.  The weather was warm about 88 degrees but we did not need air conditioning.  We decided to eat indoors because of the fly's and elected not to have a campfire due to the knats at dusk.  We did have good satellite reception though.

  We toured a museum on the property with local Indian pottery and clothing and military guns.  We also toured the Castle, a small two story wood and stone structure built by the conservation corps.   We also toured Register Cliff, Oregon trail, and Fort Laramie from here.  We paid $17 per night, which included the entrance fee.  I rate this park F***.
