Fourwinds - I am sure you have heard the age old saying "there are no dumb questions, only dumb answers". I personally think this is not an accurate statement as I have heard some pretty dumb questions in my 48 years. However, we look forward to hearing yours, and I am sure no one will consider them dumb. Okay, that's probably not an accurate statement either, but we do look forward to hearing from you. Welcome to the forum.

Boy, do I like the changes on this website!!! Wonderful new look, easier to look and find things. I haven't posted yet, but have to believe that this function is also greatly improved. The map lookup feature is fantastic when one has no idea of the addresses being looked for. Thanks.

I discovered this site about a month ago and used it while planning our just completed trip. The reviews helped us end up at the correct campgrounds for us and I will use it every time we get ready to take off in the future. Any upgrades to the software will only make a very helpful resorce even more so.

Just discovered and joined this site. We are fulltimers and expect to get good use out of the info and reviews here. It's really helpful to be able to read other's opinions of campgrounds.

Yes, this is a great site and it has helped us more times than I can count. Of course, everyone looks for something different in an rv park or campground. It's unfortunate that photos take up so much disk space, as a picture is definitely worth a thousand words.

This is a great website. I have done several google searches looking for campground review site and so far this one is by far the easiest to use and most inclusive one I have found. Thanks a bunch.

I just joined today and thought things were already great. I can't wait to see how things could get any better. I found your site from an article in Escapees magazine. I never heard of your site before that. I think its great to hear what others think about certain campgrounds...good or bad. It sure helps in deciding between 2 or 3 in an area or to find out more about a campground in an area that someone has never been to before.
Thanks -------------------- Tony and Sharon Verhagen

We are from the Netherlands and this spring we are going to make our thirth RV-trip through the United States. Last year we were on the road for 6,5 weeks and we picked every campground by reading the reviews at this website. Thanks, it's wonderful!
We are planning our new trip now and once again we will use this website. I will try to post reviews while we are on our way! -------------------- We are Dutch and we travel through the USA almost every year! We just love your country.

How about adding something truely useful -- append the submitter's user name to their reviews. At that rate, it won't take long to realize who the reliable reviewers are and who are the ones with personal greed to satisfy or with personal axes to grind.

I totally agree with Testudo's suggestion--with some sort of identification, be it the "handle" used on the discussion forum, or some other selected or assigned handle, at least we would know the ID of who was making the post (sort of), and could weigh this person's track record. I am sure that most of you read the recent heated debate about the unfair and malicious review of the KOA in Puebo (there were 865 views of this discussion and 35 different posts). Don't you find it strange that the person who originally posted the unfair review never came forward and said either "Yes, I said this, and I still think I am right" or "I apologize. I may have gone overboard." Or at least something. With the system Testudo is suggestion, at least we have some method of determining who writes real reviews and who has an axe to grind or is just an every day jerk.

I also think that is a great suggestion. Even though the majority of the forum members don't know each other, I think that through the forum discussion you do get to know what rving/camping preferences people are interested in and how their likes/dislikes match yours. Through the forum, certain members have given me recommendations in the past. If I saw a review with their name beside it I would probably give it more merit than someone who I am not as familiar with. Also, if I noticed that someone who has been to the same rv park as me gives it a similar rating, for many of the same reasons, I would be inclined to think that I would like other parks that they recommend. It may also discourage some of the reviews whose authenticity is questionable.

Wow, I thought it is already good enough. I really like the idea for the clickable campground selection map. I usually remember where it is on the map not the city it is in.

having some sort of an id number when giving a review of a park is a great idea. put a box somewhere in the review form that will link it to a member. or just use your user name. that would be even simpler.
