    Just bought a 2016 Aerolite 298RESL. Real happy with the purchase. Just finished a week and a half of camping (4 reviews pending!).

    I use this site to help choose future campgrounds. I'll review every site I visit.


    It's just myself, wife and Shih Tzu. My college age daughter will join us sometimes.


    I tow my trailer with a 1/2 ton truck.


    I'm a few years away from full retirement. Once retired, we might RV full time for a year or so. It's an option.

    Welcome to the group, and that's a sweet looking rig. I'm sure you'll make many great memories with it! Looking forward to reading your reviews...

    I've written 5 reviews for this site. None have been approved.

    And I'm off to Dreher Island State Park tomorrow for 3 days of RVing!!!

    From what I have read in the past, newer members submitting first time reviews. the reviews will go into a waiting to be approved queue. The reviews are then screened by volunteer staff before reviews go on line. This takes a few days to maybe a week. If you haven't seen your reviews posted by maybe 2 weeks I would use the "Contact Us" on the bottom right of this page.

    Once you have been posting reviews over a period of time the reviews get screened by automated software and then go right online as long as nothing gets flagged by the software in which case the reviews will then go into the waiting to be approved queue.

    I just submitted 2 reviews yesterday, one went right online and the other went into the waiting to be approved queue. No big deal this does happens from time to time.

    Have a great time at Dreher Island State Park! Have a cold one for me! :cool:

    I understand a heavy influx of end of season reviews is causing an extended approval delay. Hang in there, they will show up...

    Most times of the year it takes only about a day or two to read and post reviews. However, Mdcamping and NYDutch are both correct about the number of reviews we have received this fall. Usually things start to slow down after Labor Day, but not this year. Since September 1 we have received over 6500 reviews, so it is taking us longer to get to them. I see that we have 5 reviews from you that are pending approval, and most of them were submitted on 10-1. This means they should be getting to the top of the queue soon. We will try to get to them as soon as possible and we appreciate your patience and support.

    See my avatar pic with the three kids by the water? That was at Dreher Island January 2008. It was 27 degrees outside, yet the kids were fine in just sweatshirts.

    My reviews used to post immediately. For the past month or so they have required admin review, some taking two weeks before posting.
