Read the earlier reviews, but we did not have a bad experience here. We tend to steer clear of KOA's because they are more campgroundish. We prefer RV resorts. This place was nice. Convenient to shopping and highway but no highway noise. Nice mature trees. Awesome Hot Tub. Nice pool area though it was too cold to use it. Staff was very friendly and helpful. About the only negative was it really needs to be re-paved. The asphalt was pretty rough. Pads were concrete and most were good but ours was a little rough. Pave this place and they have a #9 rated KOA. We would definitely stay here again.

Tropical Palms is one of the nicest parks we have stayed at. Its big but doesn't feel that way. Lots of trees and the pads are level and concrete. The pool is 85 degrees year round and large. They have a kiddy pool, also. Cafe on site with good food and reasonable prices. They have putt-putt golf, horseshoe tournaments, and other activities. About 7 miles to Magic Kingdom. We really liked this place and would stay here again on our way through Florida. About the only negative I can say is the internet is awful. Slow and constantly going down.

This gated community is the Ritz of RV Parks. Newer Class As only allowed. Expertly manicured and beautiful facilities. Two pools, two giant hot tubs. Tennis. Our paved pad was level 85 X 33. The total lot was 4000 sq feet on a very nice cul-de-sac. Many of the sites have tiki huts and we did see a couple being built but construction was not an issue at all. Some are homes unto themselves. All sites are owned by private parties and sublet. Really can't say enough good things about this place. It is mostly French Canadian snowbirds. Staff is bi-lingual (French first) but that was not an issue at all. Very helpful. We would stay here again and probably lease or buy a lot. Very reasonable considering what you get. Tons of shopping nearby.

Boyds is a nice campground. It is tight. Very tight like everything else in Key West. It is located on Stock Island about 5 miles from downtown. Pretty bad neighborhood but security was excellent. Staff is UNBELIEVABLE and is the main reason we would come back. There are a lot of campers who have been coming here for decades. That's a good sign. We were along the road and frankly you should avoid those spots if possible. Very Noisy. Facilities are in great shape. Restrooms are clean. Showers are excellent. About the only really negative thing I can say about Boyds is they have Tengo Internet. Lousy, lousy Internet service. It is metered by Tengo though no one tells you. As the day goes on (after 7 AM)you'll get bumped off or service will go to a crawl once you have hit your limit for the day or park usage hits its peak. Having owned a campground and dealt with Tengo before I speak from experience. We had to use our hotspot which after the week or so got real expensive. Our business is mobile and if your is too I would plan a different Internet experience but wouldn't let that stop you from coming to Boyds. We plan on coming back next year. The place grows on you and the friendships we have made are priceless. By the way. Key West is in the US but might as well be in Europe. If English is a second language for you no worries. You're French, Russian, German or Spanish will get you by just fine.

Small park. Real nice setting but very tight getting in if you are in a big rig. Recommend removing toad at the office. Train wasn't really all that bad. Disc golf course on site. Nice small lake but you can't fish or boat on it. No cable or internet. You can get Internet if you go to the bathroom and the moon and stars are lined up correctly. Trees blocked satellite. Very aggressive security guard at night. We went out to dinner and he grilled us to get back into the park. The next night our adult son (who was driving the night before) went out with friends and got a hard time getting back into the park. Guard made us drive up to get him then showed up at our site with flashing lights to confirm he really was staying with us. Very unnecessary show of force. So if you plan on staying here keep that in mind. We probably would not come back here because of it. Understand the need for security but this was over the top. Our son is 32, clean cut and sober. Easy going. Not your average vagrant.

As RV parks go this one is a real winner. Beautiful location and easy to get to though the entrance is a tad tight for big rigs. Staff will give you a golf cart at check in to go out and pick your site. We chose one on the water which is $20 more but well worth it. Spacious level sites. Each is individually owned. Some have docks and decks. Ours had a deck with chiminea and picnic table. Close to shopping and golf courses. Staff was awesome to work with. Five star (casual dress) restaurant on site with great sunset view. Highly recommend. One of the nicest places we have stayed and a great value even for the price.

Very nice park in beautiful Destin, FL (Miramar Beach). Long and narrow. Upper park is traditional with trees. Lower park is sand and one of the prettiest beaches I have seen. Facilities are top notch. Be ready for a lot of sand if you stay in the lower park. You are quite literally on the beach. Will stay here again. Tons of shopping and restaurants nearby. Nice friendly staff.

I was scared. We entered through an industrial area then shipyards. What a pleasant surprise once we hit the gates for this RV Park. Immaculate, nice staff, beautiful waterfront site. Restaurant and bar on site. Pool is awesome and the Jacuzzi is huge. Can't say enough good things about this place. It was a $20 cab ride to the French Quarter where we hit restaurants and the casino. I'd stop here on the way back but have to stay in Baton Rouge for a meeting instead. This was a great stay! Don't let the drive in steer you away from this park. It's New Orleans. Enough said. Safe and secure here though.

I haven't found the prefect campground yet, but this would be close. Very nice property right off the highway. Excellent staff. Clean, organized, and good sized and level sites. Easy to maneuver a big rig. Private showers and restrooms. Continental breakfast with homemade waffles. Nice touch. We will be staying here when we head home in February from Florida. Highly recommend Gulf Coast RV Park!

This is a great campground. We live locally and just wanted to get away for a mini weekend vacation. The resort is large, well maintained with excellent facilities. Great Pavilion, two pools, and putting green. The cottages are very nice also. We stayed in B18 which is a large corner pull through. This resort is not on Lake Travis and the pond. The lake is very low. Section A is the residential area. Wouldn't recommend it. The far south section is along the storage area. I would stay in the middle. We will definitely go back.

This is a huge park with plenty of open spaces. We had a site along the river. Nice with a few trees. Very large sites and level. The only downside is you have to drive through an industrial area to get to it but then it is very rural. GPS may try to take you right into an energy storage facility on the last turn. Look up and to your left at that intersection and you will see the RV park sign. Watching the barges go up and down the river in a park like setting was really pleasant. Staff was friendly. This campground is not in Memphis TN but in West Memphis AR right across the river. We drove down to Beale St in Memphis in about 10-12 minutes so it is close. We would stay here again.

Grandma's is a clean overnight stop. The sites are spartan but level. Utilities worked fine but no cable. Staff was friendly and helpful. A bit nutty about dogs wetting on their shrubs. Signs will tell you it is an evict-able offense with no refund. They mean it. I wouldn't call the place dog friendly though there is a small dog walk. Right off highway. Good country store and deli across the street. Some traffic noise but tolerable. We would stay here again but only for an overnight.

We have stayed here twice. Second time was a charm. Very clean facility and very dog friendly. Nice pool. Checkers and checkerboard on every common area picnic table. Great dog walk with nice brook. No skeeters or bugs to speak of. Good camp store. Staff was VERY nice and helpful. The place is pretty tight. Last turn at camp exit by office was tough. Staff would do well to move the dumpster somewhere else and make sure everyone knows about the alternative exit which is plenty big enough for a 40+ foot motorhome. Sites are level and good size. First time in we did battle with the dumpster (we won) and almost didn't come back. Glad we did. Definitely our Nashville area pit stop from here on out.

Tall Pines was a nice find. Right off the highway and close to lots of shopping but no traffic noise at all. Smaller park but clean and sites were good size and level. Staff was very nice. Great RV store on site. Downtown Shreveport and the casinos were about 15 minutes away.

This is a nice country RV park half of which is tucked in the woods and the other half surrounded by cornfield with a few trees. The transient part is out front in the field. There are 14 pull through sites a couple of which are 50 amp. Narrow but long and level. During our stay there were only 4 other campers so it was quiet and peaceful. The owner is nice. Facilities are somewhat rustic but clean. Small pool. They do not accept credit cards. Cash and check only but the price was right. This is about 4 miles off a major road but easily accessible. We liked it. Would definitely stay here again. Just a basic no frills park.

This is a really nice campground. Tight roads going in, but the facility was plenty big enough. Excellent pool and main lodge building. Ample camp store. Spaces were level. We had a lake site. Very pleasant. We would stay here again.

Great location. Right off 195 and route 9 but you don't hear any highway noise. Secluded, treed, a little tight in some areas for big rigs as others have noted. We had site 19. It has issues with power and sewer smell. Staff moved us, and our new site was awesome. GREAT pool, tennis courts, good camp store, and excellent shopping nearby. NJ is awful for RV parks. Just not enough choice. This is a very nice park and the staff was very friendly. We stayed here for over a week. It will be our regular NJ HQ when we travel here to visit with the kids/grandkids.

Huge park. Nice layout. 2 pools with cafe. Excellent facilities. Great camp store. One of the nicest we have seen. We stayed here two days. Staff was friendly and helpful. Saw lawn staff with weedwhackers, but don't know what they were doing. Only down side was the grass between sites was uncut and not trimmed in many locations. We would definitely stay here again. Full service facility. Easy in and out. Large open spaces for families and pets. Big rig friendly.

Well we had high hopes for this park. Unfortunately it does not handle bad weather very well. Its a dirt track on a hillside. Heavy rain washed the place out. Lost power. No internet. Overall for the price, this was not a good stay. Typical KOA format.

This is a large resort community made up of cabins, homes, and some small RV sites. Most were seasonal. Though you can park an RV here, it is not very accommodating for big rigs. We had a somewhat level pad, but the sewer was out. Beautiful lake and marina. 9 miles off the highway but easy access. Owner is VERY friendly. Family business for 53 years. Place was clean and overall nice. We would come here again and leave time for renting a boat and fishing. Just know that you need to be specific about your needs when making a reservation.

A little pricey but worth it. We have stayed here several times and try to get one of the luxury sites. They are $75 night but right on the lake with a dock and beautiful patio with Bull gas grill. The facilities are immaculate. Staff is nice. Store is sparse so bring all your stuff with you. Premium sites on lake are also nice. Check out Flat Creek Estates winery. It's about 20 miles east on 1431 but worth the drive. We live about an hour away in Georgetown so this is a perfect weekend getaway park. Love it.

Park was clean and the staff very helpful. Sites were level. Some traffic noise but not overwhelming. The facilities were in really good shape. Small store, small pool, and game room. Pond was small but very nice. We would stay here again.
