Historical sites: The historic Rugby colony is within walking distance of Brooks Corner Campground & RV Park. "It is right behind the Brooks store and less than a mile from Rugby. Both the store and town are a step back in history," reports Jason K.
Night sky viewing: Rural campgrounds offer excellent stargazing opportunities due to minimal light pollution. "Star view on a clear night is awesome due to the lack of nearby city lights," mentions a camper at Brooks Corner Campground.
Playground access: Families camping at Off The Hook RV Campground can enjoy a well-designed play area. "There is an AWESOME playground and pavilion set back in the trees! My grand loved the ropes course," writes Shelly S.
What campers like
Concrete pads: The Farm RV Resort features 151 sites with level concrete pads. "The spacious, level sites were well-maintained, and the full hook-ups made our stay convenient and comfortable," notes Joe S. in his review of The Farm RV Resort.
Level pull-through sites: Several campgrounds offer easy-access sites for larger vehicles. "Level dry gravel pull through camper pads. I think all were full hook ups, some may have only been water and electric. Very clean and well maintained, quiet and no interstate noise," describes cheryl C. about Royal Blue RV Park.
Private shower facilities: Some campgrounds feature individual shower rooms rather than communal facilities. "The restrooms were private, each with its own shower which is nice," mentions Jovee S. about Maple Hill RV Park & Cabins.
Rural location benefits: The remote setting of many campgrounds offers seclusion and quiet. "Very nice quiet, rural campground with full hookups and wifi and General Store/Cafe walkable M-SA 11-5pm. It is very quiet and very dark," explains Josh J. about Brooks Corner Campground.
What you should know
Water quality varies: Some campgrounds have issues with water quality or pressure. "The water. We didn't notice this the first day, but I started seeing brownish water in our toilet. As we used the water more, it became evident that whatever water is being pumped into their system isn't good," reports a camper at Maple Hill RV Park.
Site leveling challenges: Terrain at several campgrounds requires additional effort for RV leveling. "It's uphill and was very difficult to level out the rv. Ours like many is self leveling and it just couldn't make it happen," explains Douglas T. about Royal Blue RV Park.
Distance to services: The rural location means limited access to supplies and services. "Propane is available for 20lbs swap-outs at the local Dollar Trees (Jamestown or near Eglin/Robbins both are ~20m away). Fillings at Tractor Supply (Oneida ~40m/Jamestown ~25)," advises Josh J.
Staff presence varies: Some locations have limited on-site staff hours. "Upon arrival there was no one at the office. Checkin is at 2 and we arrived at 4:53 pm. We had to call a number to get ck'd in which was a bit off putting," notes one camper.
Tips for camping with families
Playground facilities: New campgrounds are developing family-friendly amenities. "There is an AWESOME playground and pavilion set back in the trees! My grand loved the ropes course," reports a visitor to Off The Hook RV Campground.
Safety considerations: Family-friendly environments are noted at several locations. "Safe, quiet, family-friendly very clean. The owners are amazing here!!!" writes Nicole P. about Maple Hill RV Park & Cabins.
Limited shade options: Newer campgrounds may lack mature trees. "There's also no shade, they are creating their campground in a very nicely tiered field and working on getting a pond going to fish in," mentions a camper at Off The Hook RV Campground.
Entertainment options: On-site and nearby activities vary by location. "For those looking for activities, the resort offers a variety of fun options. There's a cozy clubhouse with games and a small store for essentials, plus a community fire pit where guests can gather," notes Teresa J. about The Farm RV Resort.
Tips from RVers
Water pressure regulators: Water pressure issues affect showering at some locations. "They have a pressure regulator on the water so showering was like a spit bath and took forever to get the shampoo out of my 'short' hair," reports Douglas T.
Site selection strategy: Choosing the right site location impacts overall experience. "The sites in the front are far more level than the ones in the back where the green space is located," advises Jovee S. from their stay at Maple Hill RV Park.
Filter maintenance: RVers should check water filters more frequently than usual. "When we unhooked and sprayed out our filter, it was filled with filthy gunk. This should not be the case with a week's stay," reports a camper.
Winter camping options: Year-round access is available at select campgrounds. "We had a fantastic stay at The Farm RV Resort in December. The resort's peaceful, wintery landscape provided the perfect setting for a quiet getaway," shares Mike S. about Cumberland Falls RV Resort.
