Tips from RVers
Easy access: Many sites accommodate larger rigs with pull-through options. "This place is immaculate. The sites are quite large compared to Loves RV stop- at least double the size. The entire place is smoothly paved except for the nice patches of grass attached to each site," explains a reviewer at Tifton Overnight RV.
Hookup availability: Full-service sites with 30/50 amp connections are common. "Carroll's Sausage and Country Store RV Park is easy to get to right off Interstate 75 at exit 82. The campground has 20 first-come-first-serve 50/30 AMP FHU sites that are all pull through," notes a visitor describing the convenient setup.
Traffic noise considerations: Proximity to I-75 affects some campgrounds. "You are right off I-75 so there is a lot of traffic noise, but the noise dies down some the farther you go back from the highway. Try to arrive early to get one of the sites further away from the interstate," advises an experienced RVer.
