St Johns RV Resort – St. Johns, AZ

St Johns RV Resort | RVBuddy

We spent several days and nights at this lovely park in St Johns, Arizona while we toured the Petrified Forest and also went to the Meteor Crater.

There are many Native stores in the area and it was just a wonderful stop-off location to be able to explore the area of Northeastern Arizona. We actually extended our stay longer than planned as the location was so convenient and the park, so nice.

The new owners, Christina and DJ made us feel like family and the park was so peaceful and serene. The laundry was one of the nicest we have used while RV’ing the southwest. And the rates are very reasonable, in fact they were way more reasonable than places closer to the Grand Canyon. I would suggest a stay here for anyone RV’ing near or through this part of Arizona!

Happy Travels!

Heartland RV Park – Huntsville, TX

Campground and RV Park Reviews | RVBuddy

Heartland RV Park is a nice campground overall.

Passport America is accepted here. Amenities included FHU, level sites, WiFi, laundry room, playground, gameroom/gym, and showers. We didn’t use the laundry room, but the showers were clean and private. RV spaces are close but not uncomfortable. It’s pretty quiet aside from some road noise, but not really noticeable if you’re used to RV parks in general. Verizon service here is 3 bars. Heartland has a nice office staff.

Points of interest nearby are the Sam Houston Statue, Sam Houston Memorial Museum, Sam Houston State University, Sam Houston grave site, Sam Houston National Forest, Texas Prison Museum, and Huntsville State Park

Would definitely stay here again.

Juniper Lake RV Campground – Defuniak Springs, FL

We stayed at Juniper Lake RV Campground, a beautiful small lakeside campground in Defuniak Springs, Florida. The facility is only 5 minutes from Interstate 10, exit # 85.

The owners are courteous and friendly and their park is first rate with all the services a camper would want. They only have about 20 sites but, they are level, shady, and have full hookups and pull-through sites for transients with large rigs.

The local restaurants are great too. We enjoyed coffee with the owners, looking at the gardens and the beautiful deck overlooking the water.We definitely will go back!

Point South/Yemassee KOA – Yemassee, SC

RV Park and Campground Reviews | RVBuddy.com

Point South/Yemassee KOA is located right off of I-95 (exit 33) in South Carolina about 30 minutes from the Georgia State Line.

The staff here are super friendly and helpful. The rest rooms are clean and well maintained. Our spot was perfectly level! (which seems to be rare these days)

Our nightly rate with a KOA Discount was $60.

Winter Garden RV Resort – Winter Garden, FL

RVBuddy.com | Campground and RV Park Reviews

Winter Garden RV Resort is located about 30-minutes from Walt Disney World and Universal Studios.
The sites are wide and deep and the staff are super friendly. Nightly Rate is $60 per night.

Here are a few tips for your stay here:

  1. Make sure you have either an EZ Pass or quick method of paying tolls. The toll system in and around Orlando is confusing.
  2. The bathrooms have “opportunities” for cleanliness so either shower in your unit or bring shower shoes.

 

Wilderness RV Park – Robertsdale, AL

Campground and RV Park Reviews | RVBuddy.com

Wilderness RV Park is a Coast to Coast rated 4.5. The park has many sites that are permanent residence that are junk.

The park office is the need of a real good housekeeping. There is LP gas on site but no ice machine available so you would need to go to either a gas station or a grocery store to buy ice. The on-site pool looks clean but the shelter has a tin roof with many holes in it. The entrance and exit roads to the park are full of potholes. The laundry and showers are also okay!

The sites themselves are pretty level and the electrical and sewer are okay. The Wi-Fi on the park is also okay and you can upgrade if you want faster down speeds.

The people are very friendly… no issues there.

Turkey Creek Campground – Almond, NC

RVBuddy.com | Campground and RV Park Reviews

We stayed at Turkey Creek Campground on October 16 and 17… on site 28/29. The charge was $62 per night.

The campsites are gravel and grass. We needed to level… not extreme but enough especially side to side. Other sites don’t look real level either. The bathrooms and shower was very nice and clean but could be a longish walk from the farthest sites. They have nice laundry facilities but there is only 1 washer $1.25 1 dryer $1.00. ATT signal was 1-2 bars. There are several over-the-air TV stations. The wifi but slow and sets limits if used too much.

The campground is very rustic… I’d even say underdeveloped. Spacing between sites is ok but some are not private (people would walk close by on the way to the bathroom). Most sites have shade. The interior roads are gravel and narrow. We are in a truck camper. I would not have wanted to bring a pull behind or 5th wheel down here. There were mostly tents, popups and class C at this campground. There is a creek running behind… very slow and shallow but nice none the less. Barely above a trickle.

Very nice owner too. We didn’t notice highway noise. Nice walk to a lake, and they recycle!

Devils Fork State Park – Salem, SC

Campground and RV Park Reviews | RVBuddy

We stayed at Devil’s Fork State Park in Salem, South Carolina on October 15, on site #37. We were charged $27.50 a night.

You can see Lake Jocasse thru the trees. Sites 41 and 40 back up to the water. Our site looked level but it wasn’t. Asphalt. ATT cell signal was 2 bars and there was no wifi. There were however, several over-the-air tv stations. Sites had a grill and fire ring combo. The bathrooms were good and clean and the showers were roomy.

We could walk down behind our camp site on a path thru the woods and to the lake, where there was a beachy area.

The dump station tilts the wrong way, so our tanks didn’t get thoroughly emptied.

Catalina Spa and RV Resort – Desert Hot Springs, CA

Campground and RV Park Reviews | RVBuddy

Well we stayed at Catalina Spa RV Resort in February 2018 for a week. It was OK then, nothing special. At the time you could tell that the establishment was under good direction and leadership. The employees were happy and helpful. So I decided to return in October 2018 as a “workcamper” in the security department.

The entire six weeks I was there, the wi-fi did not work, plus it is way too expensive. The cable, if it worked at all, would provide approximately. six channels. The bathrooms in the clubhouse are closed and have been for months for remodeling.

From the day I arrived (October 21) until I departed December 4, 2018, my site sewer vent pipe was broken. I asked and filed out paperwork request for repairs four times. The fumes coming out of the septic sewer system was not just awful but unhealthy. The management claims they want to bring this resort to a 5 star level. It is not a bad RV park, a lot of activities, but will never be a 5 star. The lots are not level nor clean from foliage and trimmings. The sewer connections are unacceptable, sewer hose and fittings are held in place by placement of a rock or sandbag. The trash dumpsters are always over flowing, two dumpsters for a park with 500 sites, get real.

I chose to leave my workcamper position prior to my April 2019 agreement end date. I made this decision after “Christina” and another staff member was involved in a disagreement.

I will never return to this establishment as long as I live. It is really sad because there are some really nice, good workcampers and staff. Most are really upset and considering leaving as I did.

Lakefront Lodge – Zapata, TX

We stayed at Lakefront Lodge this winter (2018) while traveling through South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley.

We had a very nice full-hookup site that was large and level with nice views of Falcon Lake. There’s a boat launch right in the park which makes it a great place to boat and fish. There’s some truly great bass fishing to be done here… and we saw many fisherman return with some of the largest bass you’ve ever seen.

Next time, we’re bringing our rods… and staying longer.
