He and the rest of the park staff make an effort to interact regularly with visitors as well. Several reviews have highlighted these aspects of the property, such as one reviewer who said, "We loved the small community feel; it had a beautiful view of the mountains and fields, the sites were medium-sized pull-through, and the host (Brian) was very helpful [during] the entire stay. It was easy [to] access off the highway to Lander as well but not very noisy." Another former patron wrote, "It's the best full-service campground in the Lander, Wyoming, area [...] It's clean and neat as a pin, with a great scenic view. The bathrooms are large, well maintained, and the showers are the biggest and roomiest I've ever seen at a campground. The staff [is] always friendly and helpful."
