Tips from RVers
Site selection strategy: At Horn Rapids RV Resort, George L. advises, "Immaculately clean, well laid out sites with a decent amount of space, clean bathrooms (although not all of the stall doors closed). For a one night stay, it was a very good choice."
Highway noise considerations: When selecting a site, consider proximity to major roads. A review for Pier 4 RV Resort cautions, "The site was backed up against the highway and not only was it so loud we couldn't sleep—it literally shook the rig despite stabilizers."
Propane availability: For RVers requiring propane, verify availability before arrival. At Sage Hills Golf & RV Resort, Kurtis K. notes the convenience of having "Full hookups, propane refill and a pool" on-site, eliminating the need to disconnect and travel elsewhere for refills.
