Tips from RVers

Hookup access: Blue Top Resort offers partial hookups with additional services. "It offers RV pull through sites with electric and water... I only gave it 4 stars because we prefer full hookup but they did offer pump out service for a small fee," explains Marge.

Road conditions: Some campgrounds feature narrow access roads that challenge larger rigs. "This is a small campground... I can't say I'd recommend it as a vacation spot. But it's decent for a place to pass sometime if you are full time or need a place to stay in the area," advises Ross C. about navigating Apple Creek Campground with larger RVs.
