"Dad’s R. V. Park" in Victoria, Texas - was rated: 6

February 8th, 2010

We stayed two nights. The people running the park are friendly and helpful. Mainly seasonal RVs, we parked on the lane in overflow, facing the city park. Lots of cars and trucks running up and down the street in front. Trains were not a big deal - 1 or 2 a night, but are a few blocks away. Weird hook-ups (share post, 30 amp only, with extra sewer- long way away from rig). This is an old park, very clean, good laundry and they have recycling (good on them!!). OK for a night or two. Not a really safe area, but we had no trouble either.

"Marina Bay RV Resort" in Kemah, Texas - was rated: 8

February 8th, 2010

We stayed a week here on the bayou. Lots of things to do in Kemah, Galveston (30min) and Houston (30min). 3 pools, good laundry and no noise. Lots of seasonals but well kept sites, so no concern either. Close to Target, Home Depot and restaurants. Nice dog walking area. A few too many rules posted, but no one seemed to be over-focused on enforcing things. Also has an adult only area. Good cable and Wi-Fi (no extra fee).

"Brookeland/Lake Sam Rayburn KOA" in Brookeland, Texas - was rated: 9

February 8th, 2010

We stayed at this park in January 2010. Our kids had so much fun catching fish in the stocked pond. This is a new KOA, and the new playground was nice. We brought our boat up the creek and got to tie it in the creek near our site. There were some people that had some horses in the horse area, and my family got to pet the horses. Their cabins are nice, too; we didn’t stay in them. We will definitely go back.

"Tall Pines RV Park (Was Shreveport / Bossier KOA)" in Shreveport, Louisiana - was rated: 6

February 8th, 2010

We stayed just one night. Can’t say much other than it was clean, neat, and the owners were very nice.

"Avalon Landing RV Park" in Milton, Florida - was rated: 9

February 8th, 2010

It is a nice little park tucked into a triangle of land between FL281 and the Indian Bayou. A wide paved road loops through the middle of the 27 sites, all of which are either back-in or pull-in. Suitable for big rigs; the sites were wide and some were quite deep. There is no vegetation between sites. The few extra dollars for a river front site was worth it; the view was beautiful. The laundry room had three washers and dryers and a folding counter. The clubhouse was next to it in the same building, adjacent to a small pool. The wifi was pretty good and the cable had 30 channels. It is pet friendly, but there is limited room to walk the dog due to the small size of the property.

"South Padre Island KOA" in South Padre Island, Texas - was rated: 6

February 7th, 2010

We were here in snowbird season and the campground appeared to cater to longer term folks, mostly in motor homes and huge 5th wheels. I would not characterize this as a friendly place–people appeared very involved in their own circles, even at social events scheduled by the campground. We were first assigned a site that had problems with length and soft turf making it hard to unhook. The neighbor said this site was chronically a problem. We were re-assigned but the TV hookup was corroded and managers weren’t in a hurry to look into it. On the plus side it was convenient to places on the island and much much nicer than the crowded public park. We would stay here again, but would expect more courtesy for the price.

Nice park with paving. Staff was nice. Park was part of a trailer park but not too noisy. Liked the riverfront. Great for a night or two.

"AB Camping & RV Park" in Cheyenne, Wyoming - was rated: 8

February 7th, 2010

This park is older but well kept. The staff was nice and very helpful. We enjoyed our stay but really liked the BBQ that was delivered to our campsite. I had the pork and my husband had the ribs; it was amazing. We would stay here again.

"Bentsen Palm Village RV Park" in Mission, Texas - was rated: 9

February 7th, 2010

This is a lovely snowbird park, mostly motor homes and 5th wheels, where most seem to be here for 2-4 mos., and most seem to know each other from previous years. Friendly if you make the effort to socialize. The dog park is terrific, and there are many pet lovers/nature lovers here. Neat and secure in what appears to be an area that needs gated parks. We liked this park and would stay again for a short time.
