Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

No help on the campgrounds....I've only done parts of it by motorcycle. Just remember, it's federally patrolled and they are SERIOUS about the 45mph speed limit. smile

We just did a pretty large section of the Natchez Trace Parkway this spring.

We started out in Natchez where we stayed at the Natchez State Park. It was great. We stayed at a couple of private Camgrounds next, (which were nothing special), and then stayed at the Trace State Park near Tupelo. This S.P. was also great, and our site was right on a lake with a great view. That was as far as we were able to go on the Trace, at that time, but we are planning on finishing the Trace at a later date.

Froggi is right about the speed limit. it is "strictly enforced". We only had one small section of pavement that was kind of rough, (they were re-toping another nearby section), but for the most part, the road was smooth, fairly wide, and very scenic.

We were able to pick up all kinds of literature at the S.P near Natchez, and really didn't have any problems getting around with our 40' Motorhome w/toad.
If you go to www.nps.gov and then the Trace Parkway site, I think that there is a list of all the Camp Grounds along the route.

If you decide to go, go slow, stop at the pull-offs, and enjoy the scenery. It's a very nice drive.smile
