Shady Dell RV Park

Frommer's Review

Yes, this really is an RV park, but you'll find neither shade nor dell at the Shady Dell's roadside location just south of the Lavender Pit mine. What you will find are nine vintage trailers, a 1947 Airporter bus done in retro-Tiki style, and a 1947 Chris Craft yacht. All have been lovingly restored. Although the trailers don't have their own private bathrooms (a bathhouse is in the middle of the RV park), they do have all kinds of vintage decor and furnishings -- even tapes and records of period music and radio shows. In the trailers that have vintage TVs, there are VCRs and videotapes of old movies. After numerous write-ups in national publications, the Shady Dell has become so famous that reservations need to be made far in advance. Dot's Diner, a 1957 vintage diner, is also on-site.
