2017 Kandiohi County Park East, Kandiohi County, Lake Lilian, MN

Another visit to Kandiohi County Park East (formerly Park 2).  The update is that the RV sites are all paved.  Water and electric at every site along with a picnic table and fire ring.    A dump station is located near entrance of the park.

We only stayed one night at this campground, but found it to be very nice.  The lot space was comfortable and the grounds were well maintained. Sites are mostly gravel with a few cemented.

Fire rings and picnic tables at each site.  The outdoor heated pool is well-maintained.

Staff was friendly and helpful.  Well equipped store in the front office too include necessary camping items and also souvenirs.

The one sight we wanted to see is the Corn Palace.   All the art work and wall murals are made from corn.  The art work on the exterior of the building is changed every year.  The interior is refreshed every 10 years.  As the corn and stalks dry out spaces begin to show which have to be redone.

If you want to see some unique artwork, visit the Corn Palace in Mitchell, South Dakota.  And if you are going to be camping check out the R&R Campground.

Making the Bed

We have an Ace RV with a King bed.  It has some room to walk around but the bed is still difficult to make since you can’t reach to the top of the bed.  The mattresses in RV’s are light, so what we have started doing is to pulling the mattress away from the headboard so we can make the top part of the bed first.  We then slide the mattress back into place and finish putting on the fitted sheets. Bed-making made simple, at least for us.
