I’m also at Carlyle Lake that weekend only across the lake from where you’re camping at Eldon Hazlet State Park. Also will be at Pere Marquette the weekend of Father’s Day site #7. Maybe run into you then.

When you go to Custer be sure to stop at the local grocery store and buy carrots. The Burros are real pushy to get one but are they cute. You will see them in the park. The lady at the store asked my wife... "oh carrots....are you going to feed the burros? with a smile, she says "your not supposed to but we all do." get out of your truck or they will try to climb in the window and break it off if its partly down. One stuck its head into my open window and started nibbling on the vent in the center of my car. We had about 20 people around us watching us feed them. A little Asian lady didn't want to try feeding them, but when I held her hand and helped her she was smiling so big and her husband was snapping pictures and laughing, they had a great time as well. The burros get real pushy to get a carrot, crowding out the little guys so be careful of your fingers ans DO NOT get out if the buffalo are close. Have a blast my wife and I did.

Feel free to message me if you head that way. I値l tell you what spot they are at. As far as staying warm, I知 in a warmer part of the world with an abundance of sand for about 6 more months. I値l be missing quite a bit of camping season until I get home.

What section do they host? I always camp the Illini loop at south end of park where it tends to be a little more peaceful than northern end.

Mornin...We have recently bought a 2018 Cougar 279 RKSWE, and pull it with a Ram 3500 dually. Wondering about the workmanship / construction on your new 5er....
We have had MANY smallish problems, with interior, including floor nails protruding, seam tapes coming off, shower leaks, flames coming from water heater upon ignition, drawers coming apart, screen door not closing properly, and on... Wondering about your situation / experiences.

Welcome from Austin, Texas. Grew up in Edwardsville. Been in Texas for 40 years. If you ever plan a trip this direction, Texas has some great spots to visit from the Gulf coast to west Texas to the Big Bend.

Yes I have had some small problems. There was debris under the floor causing lumps. Some trim buckling. Seam tape coming loose. Some of the Doors on cabinets are swelled up and don稚 close. I am camping now on Lake Pontchartrain and the toilet is running in the toilet, a vert small stream and some water coming out from under the toilet base. I will look at that tomorrow. That痴 all I can think of but I am still under warranty until about April.
