What campers like
Clean facilities: Many campgrounds maintain well-kept bathhouses. At Claystone Park Campground, "Bathroom and shower facilities very good and with attached coin operated washer and dryer. Very friendly and accommodating staff when you enter the park," according to Sue D.
Swimming areas: Several campgrounds offer beach access. "Beach clean and beautiful. We enjoyed paddleboarding on the lake," Greg S. reports about Claystone Park.
Level sites for easy setup: Twin Oaks RV Park provides campers with properly graded camping spots. "My site was only off level by 1 inch left to right so leveling and stabilizing were a breeze!

What you should know
Military access requirements: Robins Air Force Base FamCamp requires military ID or appropriate credentials for entry. Only authorized personnel can use this facility.
Seasonal flooding concerns: Low-lying areas may experience flooding during heavy rains. At James Dykes Memorial Park, "In heavy rain it floods bad and the campsites next to the river do go under water," warns Ashley P.
Limited tent camping options: Some parks restrict tent camping to specific areas or have challenging terrain for tent setup. At Arrowhead Park, "The 'tent sites' are paved and at very extreme angles, with very sparse to no tree cover what so ever. The sites were essentially on top of each other," according to Everette G.

After-hours check-in procedures: Some campgrounds have self-service options for late arrivals. At Twin Oaks RV Park, "We received an email the day before confirming our reservation and to call if we weren't in by 6pm.

Site spacing considerations: Look for parks with adequate separation between sites. Twin Oaks RV Park features "distance between sites (that are easily identified with posted numbers) makes you feel like your not sitting on top of your neighbor," adds David W.
