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!!

Pics of Campgrounds


Is there a decent site to look at campsites around the country? I would like to kind of know what we might expect when we hit the road.

Thanks!smile

I don't know how many states do this, but our Colorado state parks website has pics of individual campsites.  http://parks.state.co.us/Pages/HomePage.aspx

There's a new site out there that's trying to do that - RVParking.com

They have a free iPhone app as well as a website and users can post their own pictures and reviews. Not a ton of content yet, but it's a start, and the app owner is enthusiastic and responsive to enhancement ideas.

Of course, it would be ideal for RVParkReviews.com to add user photo functionality to their site (as well as make their site fully browse-able on an iPhone/iPad!!!) Argh.

This would be nice to have. I have noticed that most of the Web Pages you go to have pictures of the People enjoying a pot luck or pictures of the bathrooms/laundry but you never see any of the camp sites??? Wonder why...are they hiding something?

That's always been a pet peeve of mine too! Thanks for these two links -- they'll come in handy!

There was one park that the website looked great. The photos showed a wonderful looking park.

Then I went to rvparksreview.com and read the reviews. Not one good review. All indicated the park was a pig sty and there is a bar attached to the park store/restaurant. The bar draws an unsavory crowd (read bikers) which many of the permanent park residents seem to be so the party from the bar overflows into the park after closing time.

So far I have found the reviews on rvparksreview.com to be very reliable. Once I find a park with great reviews, then I go to the park website to look at the photos.

Another site I use is Google earth to look at an overview of the park. If the park is near a major city or tourist attraction the aerial views on Google Earth can be very detailed. You can see the size of the sites and layout of the park.

Don't forget Howard's page...it lists all the CG's they have visited and includes pictures and review...

http://www.rv-dreams.com/campground-reviews.html



Another idea...we use the RV'ers Notebook software...you can store details about CG's you stay at and you can add your own pictures to each entry.

My apology to Forrest Gump but it could be said that  "Campgrounds are like a box of chocolates..you never know what you're gonna get." wink
