Cool A title for a park

I have sign at the end of my drive way. We use it for our new rv park. The sign say Les's RV Park. I want to know if the word Les's is the correct way of using the word. We were told Les's is not use properly.

Yes, it's fine, the apostrophe denotes possession, it shows that it is the RV park belonging to Les.

By the way, what is an RV park?
