Traveling in a 38 foot coach we stayed 7 nights in a site for big rigs. We have nothing good to report here. First, we almost took out a low-lying power line that was over our site. The next site we were given had limbs that I had to cut myself before we could back in. We had a 50 amp site with a breaker problem. Each time we tried to use the microwave the breaker tripped and we even had to switch the hot water tank to propane mode. Just so you know there is nothing wrong with our coach.the microwave...

Each time we tried to use the microwave the breaker tripped and we even had to switch the hot water tank to propane mode. Just so you know there is nothing wrong with our coach.the microwave works even if we are just plugged into our 20 amp garage outlet. We reported the problem, but they never fixed it. Most sites are not level and there's no gravel on the pads. We stayed during the rainy season, the site was a mud pit and we stressed over our back four tires sinking and wondered if we would get stuck leaving. No satellite reception (too many large trees). Almost the entire park consists of permanent or seasonal residents who never move their units. It's an older park located in a quiet and beautiful wooded area, but unfortunately it's been neglected and desperately needs upgrading. We couldn't locate any other RV parks in the Albany area, but if you have a choice, we don't recommend staying here.

"Rough around the edges" CG near Albany NY. Made a reservation for a full H/U site - we were pulling a 14' utility trailer with our 26' C-class RV. No pull thru available so they gave us a back in & said we could park the trailer separately. After calling to say we'd be arriving just at closing time, we found no one there _ I called the # on the door & someone came, taking us across the CG to deposit our trailer on one site, then move on to our reserved site.

Staff was pleasant enough, turns out they hadn't checked their phone messages. Looking around it was clear many folks lived there full-time: a lengthy row of mailboxes, additions built on to old, run-down trailers, lots of "stuff" just sitting around. Grounds were ok but I wasn't really comfortable walking around very much.
