In addition, we are completing a primary electric in upgrade in order to ensure higher voltage, now and in the future, as rigs and ancillary structures continue to demand more. Other community improvements and the addition of amenities are continuing throughout our now, nearly 50-acre, site.

Leaseholders may rent their Sites when not in use in order to potentially generate income.
