What you should know
Seasonal operations: Most RV parks operate between April/May through October/November. At Moscow Maples RV Park, a camper explained, "This is a smaller campground with some full timers or seasonal campers. We stayed a week and enjoyed our time there. We had lots of rain so we didn't get outside as much as we wanted."
Electrical capacity limitations: Some parks experience power management challenges. At Harbor Cove RV Resort, one RVer reported, "We struggled to stay for 1 night as we had to keep hitting the Circuit Breaker every 5-10 minutes... It was all because their box couldn't handle the power. They even had the City come out to see why, and it was because their system was poorly set up."
Site spacing variations: Campgrounds differ in how sites are arranged. A camper at Camp Turkeyville RV Resort noted, "The only negative is the campground is basically in a field with very little trees and the sites are close together. There are 127 sites all of them have a firepit and electric hook up and cement pad."
Tips for camping with families

Tips from RVers
Cell connectivity: Signal strength varies by carrier across the region. A Twin Mills camper detailed, "Cellular: T-Mobile had good signal strength and bandwidth, AT&T was not as good but still doable."
Road noise considerations: Sites near highways may experience traffic sounds. An Angola/Hogback Lake KOA Holiday visitor advised, "The only drawback is the traffic noise if you're staying in any of the sites near the front of the park."
Site selection strategy: RVers recommend considering specific site features. At Angola/Hogback Lake KOA Holiday, a camper warned, "Watch out for some of the patio sites, some have a fire pit that would sit directly under an awning. Our patio site though had the pit far out from site and we loved it, the grill even had propane in it to use!"
