Duplicate Park Listings Options

[Jerry S.]

I know I could have relayed this information to the Admins via the "contact us" feature but I decided to post instead. Among other things, readers will be reminded to check to see if the park they are reviewing is already listed.

The AVI Casino RV park is listed twice under Laughlin, NV. One loists it AVI and one adds KOA to the name. These seperate listings are for the same park.

The Swinging Bridge RV park in Mississippi is listed under both Jackson and Byram. You will notice that the number of sites are close and the phone number is the same. Byram is the proper city for the park to be listed under.

I noticed these duplications because these parks were recently reviewed and I have been to them in the past. I tend to check reviews of parks I have been to.

Additionally, I question whether or not the recently posted 1 or 2 star review of AVI should have been approved. Last year I had a review rejected because the "checker" felt I did not say enough about the RV park. This AVI review complains about the park being 15 miles south of Laughlin (somebody did not do their research) and talks about how small the casino is. Except for location, there is nothing in the review about the RV park. So this park (that get lots of good reviews) is given a lousy review because the reviewer didn't do research to find out where it was and the the casino is small. There was not a word about the park's facilities, conditions in the park, the reviewers experience in the park, etc..

I'm Baaaaaaack!

I found another duplicate listing of a park I've been to in the past and recently drove by on my way to and from the Grand Canyon last month. Both listings for the park are under Canute, OK with the exact same park name (Elk City/Clinton KOA).

There was a recent review of this park that gave it a 2 and I checked out the review and then the reviewer's other reviews. Turns out that the same reviewer reviewed the park earlier in 2010 and gave it an 8. The bad review complained mainly the everything about the park being too small for his "big" rig. There was no mention of staying at the park the prior year and liking it. I just found this situation curious.
