"In its 15th season, the campground has become so popular that the owners are in the process of tripling its RV capacity, adding more spaces for tents and installing a second pool.

Most surprising, perhaps, is the way local residents generally react to the camp nowadays: with a shrug, or maybe an awkward grin. Once the target of notable harassment --- gunshots, vandalism and runoff from a strategically placed hog farm --- Cactus Canyon now enjoys a much more peaceful existence."
