We stayed at the Trailer Inns Trailer Park at Spokane Valley, WA. and were v.ery dissapointed with the park. This park was built in 1974 prior to longer trailers and slide outs. they apparantly solved the length problem by painting yellow extension lines from the site out into the internal roadway, thereby narrowing the roadway. people don't park their tow vehicles in thier space but ,rather in the roadway. This makes leaving early the next morning near impossible. To get out we had to wake people up, have them move 2 trucks, one of wh.ich had a dead battery. Then we had to move about 20 potted plants that the assistant manager had growing in the road. Also, for you dog lovers, the dog walk was outside the park,between the street and the fence to the park, a distance of about 10 ft. and about 150 ft. long. The road has traffic at about 40 mph. not the safest place for man or dog.

We are still on the road, currently we are in Vancouver, WA. We expect to be home on October 10. Regards to all-------Jim

They have a park in Yakima, WA with the same sort of problems. They do have some long pull thrus but all but 2-3 have problems for a 5er to pull into. We stayed there overnite a couple of times a year for 2-3 years. I always reserved a specific site that I knew would work well for us...not once did we get that reserved site. Their excuse was always that someone came in during the nite and set up in it.
They also have vehicles parked in the lanes which makes it difficult for a 5er to swing out to pull into the sites...there are a lot of full-timers there.
We just don't stay there any longer.
