So true a bout Candy Hill in VA. We were looked down on for having dogs. They watch you like a hawk. We checked in on Friday afternoon and left Saturday morning. We were schedule through Monday. We NEVER GO BACK.
We stay at Whites City every time we visit Carlsbad Caverns. It’s 1. Close to the entrance. 2. Quiet at night. 3. Easy check-in. 4. Inexpensive. 5. East to hook up. 6. Nice people that run it.
