Lake Panasoffkee KOA – Lake Panasoffkee, FL

Campground and RV Park Reviews | RVBuddy.com

Very rustic would be a generous description for Lake Panasoffkee KOA. There are old mobile homes scattered throughout the park… It’s not very attractive.

Don’t count on shade. There are some trees but many sites, like our big site has no shade. The sites are not very level and loose sand that end up all inside your rig. The dog park is a joke. It has a poorly maintained chain link fence, and very small area to run. The bathhouse near the office has one stall and one shower. The stall is so small your knees hit the door.

There are no real activities for kids, or families. The shuffle courts and horseshoe pits are are not well maintained either. It’s not really in Lake Panasofkee; more like on a swampy canal the goes to the larger lake.

The campground is very noisy as well. It’s very close to I-75 and railroad tracks. Trains lay on horns for long time to cross the main road. The trains never seemed to stop.

The pool area had no bar activities or breakfasts going on. The pool is very very small, but the area was clean. We ended up leaving early and going over to Pana Vista lodge. Much much better experience.

South Forty Camp Resort – Petersburg, VA

South Forty RV Resort | RVBuddy.com

I’ve written about South Forty Camp Resort several years ago, so now it’s time for an update…

Formerly a KOA, South Forty Camp Resort is quiet and peaceful respite after a long drive on I-95. It’s located about 1/2 mile east of I-95, exit 41. That makes it a perfect overnight stop for us as we travel between Florida and New England.

I wouldn’t consider this campground a “resort” but it certainly is a comfortable place to spend a night or two. The pull thru sites are a little rough but they are reasonably large, even for larger rigs.

They have full hookups (including cable), a swimming pool, nature trails, fishing (no license required) , a playground, convenience store, game room, laundry, and free Wi-Fi. The facilities are clean and well maintained.

Nino’s North Italian restaurant is within easy walking distance and is open in the evening and has some great pizza and Italian food to die for.

Don’t bother visiting their website. As of this post date it will just take you to a nondescript sample page template for a future website. It’s been that way for several months… shame on South Forty. No website is better than an embarrassing one.

 

Stonebridge RV Park and Resort – Sweeny, TX

Stonebridge RV Park has been an awesome campground for my family while my husband worked at a nearby plant. We have stayed here long-term and it’s really well managed and maintained.

The swimming pool and stocked fishing ponds provide so much fun for the kids and adults. We like the pavilion area for BBQ’s and roasting marshmallows on the firepit at night. They have a brand new laundromat that’s really nice.

We rate Stonebridge RV Park and Resort a 10!

Castle Rock Campground – Castle Rock, CO

Castle Rock is a nice, comfortable family-oriented campground with a very friendly staff. The property is in a convenient location just off I-25, exit 174. It can get a little noisy with the Interstate and railroad traffic close by, but its tolerable.

Amenities here include a small store, laundry, game room, a pool and nightly movies. The sites are gravel and fairly level. Some of the sites are a little on the small side if you have a larger RV but there is vegetation between them that will afford some privacy. The interior roads are gravel so the campground tends to get a little dusty at times.

Castle Rock Campground is a great base if you want to visit attractions in Denver and Colorado Springs. It’s also a good stopover park if you are passing thru. I recommend it even if you want to spend a few days there.

Crystal Hot Springs – Honeyville, UT

My family along with some friends stayed at Crystal Hot Springs campground for a weekend last summer.

The campground is divided into two sections (one with power and one without) and we stayed in the without power section. I would suggest this area for anyone going there, as the section with power was very small and I think frequently packed in the summer.

The pool area was OK. It was 90 degrees on the day we got there and my husband said the hot springs pool was boiling and the regular pool was freezing. They also had a really nice water slide.

All in all it would be an OK place to stop for the night or a two day trip.

The one thing that made this a good trip was the company that came with us and the live band at the park that night. I think the price was quite reasonable as well.

Pelican Roost RV Park, Mayport, Florida | RVBuddy.com

Pelican Roost RV park is a great little campground with large pull-thru sites with awesome views of the ocean… some sites are right on the waterfront.

Interior road are paved and the sites are level. You can even watch ships as they travel in and out of the harbor right from your campsite. The staff is exceptional. they really make you feel welcome. You get a sense of community here. Saturday mornings they have pancake breakfasts, and weekly ice cream socials and cookouts.

It gets windy here so secure your awning! Wifi is available and a great signal.

Sorry… this is a military facility, so it’s open to military personnel only. Active, National Guard, Reservists, Retired, 100% DAV, NAF, Dependents, Guests, Active DOD Civilians (Retired DOD Civilians not allowed on base).

We will be back!

Tall Sycamore Campground – Logansport, IN

RV Park and Campground Reviews | RVBuddy.com

It is my opinion that this campground should be avoided because none of what they advertise is true.

There is no camp store. The boating river is shin deep and there are no boat ramps. There is no wifi and there are no activities.

The water smells. The lots are small and poorly maintained pull through lots are in the grass. The pool is small and cloudy. The office is not manned and there is no security.

The park floods if it rains heavy and sewer plus bathhouse backup.  there is no staff just managers lazy son rides golf cart all day around an around. The park is a 100 yrd. from train tracks… trains and whistles all day and night.

If you do camp at this site have mercy on others and please submit a review.

Diamond B Campground – Weatherford, TX

Where to begin… this campground is outdated.

As pipeliners we moved in late at night during Hurricane Patricia because our intended campground didn’t take people moving in after 6pm. We got set up enough to get some sleep. The next morning we were immediately bombarded by strangers who are full time residents. They had a million and one questions and all we wanted to do was finish getting our sight set up and get ready to make our test the next day.

Yes they have free wifi here however there’s also a hacker that was hacking into people’s phones and computers that were connected to the campgrounds wifi. Use at your own risk. The lady Loretta that claims to be the owner that we didn’t trust to give our rent to also she was constantly leaving rude notes on people’s doors, constantly going over an messing with people’s property when they weren’t there, harassing the male tenants we worked with, and asking for information about you that only someone who was trying to steal your identity would need.

Jim is the manager who you would want to deal with. If you have dogs make sure to watch out for them as their are several dogs that constantly roam around unattended by permanent residents and from the trailer park across the street. Cops were in and out at all hours of the night. Cops pounding on our door at all hours of the night asking where permanent residents were. We didn’t associate with the permanent residence because of all the stuff that was constantly going on here. This place isn’t a place we would recommend to anyone to stay at if you’re pipelining or vacationing.

Hitching Post Corral and Campground is a nice new park, with wide roads and big sites… big rig friendly.

The campground has 24 sites with full hook ups, 20/30/60 amp service, water, sewer and free wifi. Most sites are pull throughs. There are some back in sites in the woods.

The  owners are very friendly.

It’s just about 1 minute off Interstate 10 exit 130, and an easy overnight stop over.

Stagecoach Stop RV Park – Rio Rancho, NM

The owner here at Stagecoach Stop RV park is very friendly and accommodating.

It’s a very nice clean park with a privacy fence if you want one and a clean recreation area with a large TV. The campground has free WiFi.

The owner comes to gatherings in the rec room and wants to know if you are having any problems and will fix them if possible.

You can’t go wrong here for any reasonable price. We will come back next year for sure.
