06/02/97 Park: Sicamous KOA #32 Location: Sicamous State: BC Rating: 2.5 Description: This is a highly rated park in Good Sam. The reason for rating it low is that the water was brown and particles settled from it. Our site was grassy with gravel drive. Full hookups. Sites quite close together with no isolation. Trees around the sites area, but not near sites. Moderate highway noise. Sequence: 017
06/03/97 Park: Anmore Camplands #173 Location: Vancouver, State: BC Rating: 3.0 Description: Mostly long term occupants. Pretty expensive. Sites have reasonable separation.

09/05/97 Park: Pismo Coast Village RV Park #330 Location: Pismo Beach, State: CA Rating: 3.0 Description: Bill themselves as a resort. VERY expensive - $32 + tax! NOT WORTH IT. Sites are close together. 400 sites. We had 3 large fires in nearby firepits blazing and emitting smoke. Bathroom not very clean - graffiti, dirt since cleaning seemed like not cleaned all day. Gates in property line fence provide walking access to beach, but a shallow lagoon separates park from ocean by several hundred yards, so ocean view, but
Page 8 of 89 not easy access. The sad part is that this seems like the best choice in Pismo Beach. Next time in this area, try Morro Bay State Beach (very nice, but call well ahead for reservations on weekends, summer, e.g. weeks), or roadside parking in Avila Beach ($15/night) right on edge of beach. Sequence: 040

The week before we arrived was rainy, foggy and cold (<40). Sequence: 042
09/22/97 Park: Tumalo State Park A13 Location: Tumalo, State: OR Rating: 4.0 Description: Paved site, right on river. Good separation. Nice trees, grass. Highway nearby not a problem. $17 for river site, no hookups. Restrooms small but clean. Sequence: 043

Page 13 of 89 05/31/98 Park: Natural Bridges National Monument Overflow Location: Natural bridges NM, State: UT Rating: 4.5 Description: Because the campground at the Monument was full, we checked out their (free) overflow area. Nominally, it is just a large circular gravel parking lot. However, there is a dirt road running off the back of it. We followed that road to a point where a barricade prohibited further travel by bike or motor vehicle. It is a perfect campsite - very isolated and on the edge of a hikeable canyon. There are no services here, so we operated self-contained. But it is one of our favorite site experiences. Sequence: 061

09/07/98 Park: Plymouth Jellystone Park #729 Location: Plymouth, State: IN
Page 16 of 89 Rating: 3.0 Description: Although highly rated in Good Sam's guide, this place is not our cup of tea. It has over 1000 sites, mostly long term renters. Our site was fine, but the first site they assigned us was not. The hookups were way at the back, down a slope and in weeds, and the site was weeds, not grass. We moved to 729, which was large, grass. Several sites were nearby but the RVs were unoccupied at this time. Though right on US 30, the facility is so large (114 acres) that our site was away from highway noise. Overall okay in a pinch, but not to be sought out. Sequence: 075

5/23-24/03 Park: Astoria/Warrenton/Seaside KOA #S9 Location: Warrenton, State: OR Rating: 2.5 Description: We stayed here last year and rated it higher. See #228. I downgraded the rating slightly because the charge was $40/night with the KOA discount, and this seems like a real rip-off. See prior rating for description. Only reason we stayed here this time is that the Fort Stevens park was reserved for Memorial Day weekend. Sequence: 237

Beautiful setting with watered grass lawns, Mature trees around sites and a view of the Deschutes River from most sites. Restrooms okay. Many sites pretty short, even though well separated.

6/24-6/03 Park: Charbonneau Park #46 Location: Ice Harbor Dam State: WA Rating: 4.0 Description: This is a US. Corps of Engineers park. Half price with Golden Age.

7/15-6/03 Park: Billings Metro KOA Location: Billings State: MT Rating: See earlier listing, #112, and note below. Description: KOA seems to overcharge for their sites, tacking on extra charges that other parks provide as part of the base fee. Also, the sites tend to be rather shoddily maintained, with gravel showing through to dirt/mud, and grass not nicely maintained. That was certainly true of this park, except for the premium sites for which quite a higher price is charged. Sequence: 252

8/29-9/1 /03 Park: Town & Country RV Park #6 Location: Savage State: MN Rating: 2.5 Description: This park is highly rated by Trailer Life, but we felt they took too many
Page 55 of 89 short cuts. Most of better sites were crowded together. There were mature trees around park, but providing no privacy. Rest rooms were too small for capacity crowd.

Sequence: 319
1/30/04 Park: Terrace Village RV Park #27 Location: Grand Terrace State: CA Rating: 3.0 Description: Paved roads and sites. Sites are quite small and packed together - we just fit in a back-in site with our bumper overhanging the curb of the access road. Sequence: 320

The width of each is barely wide enough to fit between the concrete patio pad and the hookup stand. Aside from that, the location and facilities are nice. Paved roads, gravel sites (with concrete pads), mature trees. Quiet. An easy 3.5 or maybe more if there were 2/3 the number of sites in the same area. Sequence: 322

2/29/04 Park: Fort Stockton KOA Location: Fort Stockton State: TX Rating: 3.0 Description: Between Las Cruces and Kerrville, this is apparently the best RV park along I10.

3/1-4/04 Park: Buckhorn Lake RV Resort #6016 Location: Kerrville State: TX Rating: 5.0 Description: An excellent RV park. Caters a lot to big rigs. No permanent residents.

3/17-18/04 Park: Kerrville/Schreiner City Park Location: Kerrville State: TX Rating: 4.0 Description: This park was until recently a state park, but is now Kerrville's. Our first night we could only get a tent site, and they are pretty small and non-level. The office suggested we might prefer the overflow area - unnumbered sites with picnic tables but no campfire or barbecue area. But these sites are quite nice - many paved, well separated. We chose one that was less developed, but totally by itself at night - during the day it is in the playground parking area. Perfectly quiet. We liked it so well that we returned to it the second night, even though we could have upgraded to a water/electric hookup site (#219) that would have been fine. The park is pretty nice, though we didn't spend time there during the days. Sequence: 341

11/13/04 Park: Stillman RV Park Location: Sacramento State: CA Rating: 2.5 Description: This park is in a bad part of town,and has a coded gate to compensate. Near highway 99 so there is road noise, though not unbearable. Paved roads, gravel sites. Sites quite close, but long. There aren't many parks in Sacramento, and this is the highest rated by Trailer Life until you get pretty far out. OK in a pinch for one night of self contained camping - it has full hookups, including cable. We didn't try the restrooms - they may be fine but we weren't inclined to check. Mostly permanent residents it seemed. Sequence: 368
