River Front RV Park

 

We arrived here Garrison, Montana on July 18 for three nights.  While we called for reservations ahead of time, this was the only unreserved stop on this trip.  Our level site was full hookup with 50 amp electric.  However, the 50 amp service was not working and power to the motorhome was turning on and off every 20 seconds.  It worked fine on 30 amp but since the temperature outside was 100 degrees, one air conditioner was not enough to cool our rig and all other sites were reserved.  Our neighbor also had power issues and as it turned out their 50 amp plug was defective.  The next day they replaced his plug and we were back in business with 50 amp service.  The park staff was very helpful and even when you check in a scout directs you to your site and someone comes around the evening to collect their fee.  This was a converted mobile home park and most pull through sites were 101 feet in length.  They were separated quite nicely too.  The open areas were watered and green, but individual sites were dry dead grass.  Only two rules in the park were to pick up after your dog and do not put mats on the grass.  We were one site away from the laundry so we did wash our clothes while there.  Aggie inadvertently dropped a sponge into our black water tank.  I flushed the tank several times and it finally came out.  Certainly don't want to block the sewer line.  Many visitors to the park are regulars and everyone seemed friendly.  There was a clubhouse with free DVD's to borrow.  There was no over the air TV.  There was also free internet which was slow but I did upload my pictures for the blog there.  I rate this park P***.5.  

We visited the Old Montana Prison & Auto Museum, a separate post while there and also toured a working ranch one day.
