Roomy lots, clean facilities

The lot size was quiet large and the lavatories/baths were very clean.

We were in the camper area on a corner lot #48. They say full hookups but only water and electricity (no grey or black water sewer on lots).

Park is below an airport route so there were lots of planes flying over.

Campers were quiet though.

Lots of mosquitoes!

Fire pits will grills on each site made is nice for a campfire and a cooking area.

Easy Going No Frills

Very close to the highway but in nature on a pond in a lush green area.

Owners were very communicative, coinscientious, and helpful.

It appears there may be a few long term renters on the property.

This was good for a one-2 night stay.

Friendly & Helpful Owners

This RV park is a no frills park located in Okemah, Oklahoma.  It was 5 minurtes from I-40 in a very green setting.  

The operators were kind and helpful. Theyn kept in touch with us for our ETA to make sure we could find the spot. 

Very inexpensive for a 1 night stop on our way cross the country!

An Oasis in Monument Valley

This KOA is located right across the road from soem of the manor buttes in Monumewnt Valley, right in the heart of Navaho Country. We discovered this campground on our first trip to the American Southwest post COVID. This facility is newly owned and very well updated by way of lavatories, showers and laundry facilities (immaculate).  The owners are extremely friendly and connected to the guests.   All the sites have full hookups and there are additional services provided on the site such as jeep rentals, Navaho tours and horse rides.  We are satisfied with the accommodations and would come again if wevever re-visit this area. Very nice maangement!

Convenient In-Park Location!

This park is great for a full day and a half of Zion Park exploration. Located right at the south entrance it is situated along a river in a shaded area with plenty of spaces with advance reservations. Good for dry camping with electric hookup (no water or Wi-Fi). They give away 1000 shuttle tickets a day but you have to stand in line. Highly recommend shuttle to she over 50% of park not reachable by car. With a 2 day stay if you leant to see every thing and like to hike. Worth it.

Stone’s Throw from West Yellowstone Gate

Yellowstone Campgrounds did not open until May 15th due to snow and COVID so we had to find a last minute convenient RV park right in town two blocks from the gate.

This one was clean and well organized. Full hookups and neatly landscaped. It has the usual conveniences like laundry, toilets and showers, a playground and pavilion as well as a well organized dump station and good layout with at least 304 sites.

Beautiful view but rustic and price high for value

It appears the name has changed to Jared’s Wild Rose Resort now. Small and a little unorganized but a lot of beauty in Lake Henry. Perfect view of snow capped mountains.Trout flapping in stream behind camper lot and large fresh water pelicans in the cove a few feet from the camper. 20 minutes from Yellowstone West Gate. Lots not well marked. Management not typically in the office during the day. There does not appear to be wi-fi or a bath house. Quiet for hard core campers. It appears they offer services year round for campers, hunters, fishers. Not just a campground, there is also a marina and cabins.

Convenient, inexpensive and easy

We went here last minute on way to Badlands SD. Easy to find with full hookup. Not pricy. Good for a short stay. Quiet and safe ( on premises of hotel). Showers OK but could have been warmer.

Clean, safe & quiet

This RV park in Roman, MT is about an hour or so away from the Western entrance of glacier National Park. Easy to find on Highway 93 on way to the park. Family operated, reliable, friendly and secure. Hot water in very clean showers a pleasant surprise. Enjoyable short stay. Location in a spot near the main road but with a majestic view. Full hookups. .

Typical Family-oriented Campground

We came here to Sheridan Wyoming in May 2021. Friendly people and camp was nearly full. Weather was windy and in the high 40’s in the daytime. The camp is very close to the highway and close to town. Easy to get to surrounding areas but you need a car. Our spot was near the pool but it was far too cold and not yet set up. The facilities were very clean and the showers we nice snd hot.I felt safe and comfortable. Very close to highway and train tracks so that you can easily hear both when sleeping (use ear plugs). Easy to get back on I-90 due to proximity of highway to camp. We were also charged an additional $11.00 upon check-in for reasons unexplained.

Everything and more!

This campground has something for everyone including everyone: tents and campers, cottages, hotel rooms Extremely close to the entrance to the park. Less than 3 miles I believe. Lots of activities for families with and without kids. Playgrounds, mini golf, a water slide, ATVs and bicycles. Biggest KOA I’ve ever seen. Each RV platform also has a chair swing, grill, firepit and patio furniture.

Hikers and Lobster-lovers Paradise

This is the first campground you can reach once you arrive in Mount Desert island. It 11 miles to Bar Harbor town proper and only 8.7 miles to the Hulls Cove Acadia National Park visitors center and the entrance to the Cadillac Mountain Summit Road.

The campground has a lobster cafe on premises with lobster rolls and lunch and breakfast items as well as lobster dinner and beer and wine. Our site was 225 just a stones throw from the beach and waterfront patio. Facing a western exposure over the water for a fabulous sunset view. There are several waterfront spots of you are luck enough to get one. I loved walking along the small beachfront looking for shells and beach glass (hard to find).

We visited in early October 2020 and the fall foliage was just beginning. A week later might have yielded even more fall colors. The weather was in the 60’s in daytime and 50’s at night. Mornings were crisp and sleep was pleasant if you have a good sleeping bag or wool blanket. There was heavy rain when we arrived. 2 days later there was light rain. Bring lots of layers and rain gear just in case.

People in Maine and visitors were very respectful wearing masks and social distancing even while hiking. Everyone was quiet and family oriented.

Koa store allows purchase of propane and camp wood bundles. Some sites have gray water disposal.

Shady Spot walking distance from Beach

I’ve lived in CT all my life but never used the Rocky Neck State Park Campground until now.

The campgrounds are named after water fowl: Crane, Egret, Osprey, Heron etc…We stayed in Egret. We camped at site #4 (sunny) then moved to #38 (shady).

Both spots were quiet, music low and people minded their business. Equal mix of RVs big and small as well as many tents.

Bathhouses and toilets were not as cleaned as I would have liked but passable. Coronavirus social distancing required.

Sites include one paved parking spot (ours was very muddy) a fire pit and a picnic table. No water or electric hookup. Wi-fi not available at this campground. Fire wood is sold at camp office. There is no store in park - no ice either.

A lot of you children. Short walk to Rock Neck beach. Nature Center has movies on weekends for kids.

Anyone with kayaks can’t easily get to boat launch. It’s 4-5 miles by car at 4 mile river boat launch. See photos.

Peaceful 4th of July 2020

This campsite is near the shore in my home state of CT. It took a little over an hour to get here. Our spot was near a large salt marsh.

The park and beach were full occupancy for campers without reservations. I saw no tents - maybe due to COVID. There are ample bathhouses but the one near me is locked up. I suspect the others may also be closed.

A pair of geese and their goslings came to visit. See video and pictures.

No campfires allowed without a fire pit. You can rent one at the small camp store for a $20 deposit plus $12 first night the $2 each night - pay in advance.

Sites are large and clean. My site has trees for shade and a place to hang my hammock. But the park officials made me take it down :(.

Water hookup but no electricity on our sites. Water for drinking only was on my site but you can’t connect with a hose to your camper in most of the less expensive sites. There are more expensive sites with full hookups but no Wi-Fi.

Price of my site is very affordable around $20 a night.

I saw 2 dump stations near exit. Supermarkets a few miles down the road.

Easy to walk to the beach. Plan to kayak. There is a boat launch at Meig’s Point where you can drive 100 feet from the water to unload from your car. Lovely small beaches, walkways and jetties for fishing or photos of nature.

5 miles from Kindred Spirit Mailbox

I came to this campground because of its location about 5 miles from Kindred Spirit Mailbox on Bird Island.

The campground was quiet. All the guests were quiet, but friendly.

Water and electric hook-up, laundry on site, showers and toilets behind the camp store office. Great cement picnic tables/benches!

Not close enough to beach unless you have a car or bikes. Parking lot near beach is $10. Pool clean; ice and firewood on premises for sale.

Dump station near entrance/exit. Road into camp is incredibly narrow. 2 vehicles can’t fit; one has to pull over to the side to let another pass by.

This campground used to be a KOA but now it is a Good Sam camp. The road is still named KOA. Address is 7200 KOA Drive, Sunset Beach, NC 28468 (910)579-7562.

Plenty of wildlife photo ops here

This park is huge. We are in the northern camping area Lot 160. Platform is cement so the camper is Level. Our site has a built-in black and grey water private dump station.

The park has nature trails to walk and bike.There is a causeway with a lot of marsh birds and several crocodiles. We went there after tropical storm and a lot of crocs were dry active.

Our site was a 1 minute walk to the shore. The beach was clean but barely occupied due to social distancing. It was part of a 60 mile stretch of beach.

The facilities, were pretty clean and hardly used when I was there.

There was so much to do in the area, including kayaking, that I’ll have to come back for more.

When we left very early (4:30 am) the park entrance was padlocked. Luckily a ranger came out pretty quickly to help with the padlock.

Steps from the beach!

We were in site 156 which was right near a boardwalk and a bathhouse. I went right after Virginia State Parks opened up again after the lockdown. It was on the Friday of Memorial Day weekend. We arrived around 4:30 ish but the office was closed. We were told to go to the kiosk for late self-checkin. Everything was organized and ready.

Our site was good but be warned if you go to the southern side of the park near the beach that you will be very close to a US military base called Fort Story. You may hear occasional machine guns and artillery. You will also hear reveille in the morning. It was not terribly bad.

As we went there when not many people were venturing out, I personally found that this campground was quite private and it was simple to social distance. I saw 2 nearby campers but did not see a soul at their campsite or on the beach, albeit I was only there for 1 day and there was rain that evening.

I’d like to go back to this campground but further on the beach to the north. The sites and beach were clean. The park personnel were polite and not annoying.

Perhaps next summer for a longer visit.

First to Review
Family Friendly and Well Organized

I'll be honest. This was my first RV camping experience. This KOA Niantic CT location is about 2 hours from home. It was the perfect place (not far from home) to practice.  The checkin was quick and organized, the rules were clear the hosts were very organized and the staff were attentive. They give every family a free newspaper every day. The price was definitely fair for unlimited wi-fi, electricity and water. There is an on-site store for convenience. The nearest grocery store was in another town more than 5 miles away. 

Fellow campers were respectful and went about their own business. The facilities were kept tidy including the baths and showers. I was pleasantly surprised. The best part of this campground was the proximity to the state beach via a well kept hiking trail. We learned a lot about camping and each time we will get better and better.  

My only regret is we didn't have a car. Some sites were a bit too far or too dangerous to bicycle (the roads were curvy and didn't have much of a shoulder) so we spent money on Uber/Lyft to visit a few local sites for example to rent kayaks to explore the inlet and river.

I was happy with my experience and  I'd definitely go again.
