Ugh. They kept the pay showers, such a crappy concept and worse implementation.
I rather liked those showers when I was there. strongest blast of nice warm water I've ever had. and since open to the public charging cuts down on a million people from other cam grounds to use them for free.

I don’t mind the shower fee. I can shower in my RV for free. So it doesn’t bother me.

There are pictures in the page you linked if you scroll down.
They revised the web site after I initially posted it and added pictures.

Looking at the sat photo above the RV's seem to be more widely spaced with trees around each site. The original site was the large bare open field and the RV's were so close that we could clearly hear conversation in the next unit.
May be fewer sites tho.

This picture may tell you otherwise as its supposedly after the renovations. New asphalt and fresh concrete. Mr Airstream looks like he could not run his awning out without hitting toy hauler guy, and toy hauler guy looks like his picnic table is 6' to 8' from Mr Airstreams truck. If it was a field before do they have super fast growing trees or did they transplant mature ones?

I hope they changed things a little bit. most every site had a wooden post at the end and most of them had been knocked back about a 45 degree angle to "lengthen" them a little.

That picture is no where near being close. It actually looks twice as far as when I was there in 2017!

That would depend on your definition of close. Hard to tell from a picture found online but the space between those RV's is no more than 12' max.

I can tell you, we were far closer on 2017. Those pics look better than what we had to deal with! Looks like twice the room now!
