I was saddened to see the condition of this area when we pulled in. Bottles thrown everywhere, run down buildings and broken benches. I can imagine a day when this was in great condition and locals would use it to make fun family memories. Please be careful pulling into the lot as again many bottles litter the area. If your in the CITOing mood this is a PERFECT location but wear gloves!
