RV Park Reviews

Route 66 RV Resort
Route 66 RV Resort

This was our second stay at this RV park. The first was a rather chaotic stop with battery issues etc. This stop gave us much more time to check out this first-class RV resort. Located on the west side of Albuquerque, NM conveniently off I40 this is the perfect location for short or long term stays. The campground is situated behind the Route 66 Casino and within walking distance or quick free shuttle door to door.

Bear Creek RV Park
Bear Creek RV Park

This park has gotten a bad rap over the years. I will be the first to admit that this location is not for everyone. If you intended to come to the Great Smokie Mountains and camp in the woods, this is not for you. Want to enjoy all that is near and dear to Asheville, you could not pick a better place to stay.

New Bern KOA
New Bern KOA

Sometimes you just pick a winner. We have stayed at a number of KOA during our travels. This location by far has been the best on any we have stayed at. Shortly before our arrival and prior to me booking this location we got a notice from KOA that this was the KOA 2019 Campground of the Year. Our first reaction was, this should be interesting, what are the makings of Campground of the Year? I hope my notes below can begin to explain why this campground got a well-deserved award. Let’s walk it down.

El Paso Dash

El Paso Dash

We have been grinding over this trip for the last 2 1/2 months as we wait out this stay-at-home decision. We have been isolated other than going to the grocery store and of course, my morning walks with Zoey for this entire time. I heard a phrase the other day that might describe how we are approaching this first trip out, “Calculated Risk Assessment” travel. We wanted to set a health baseline for our trip so we both have been recently tested for COVID and the results I am happy to say are negative.

Back To The Garden

Back To The Garden

Prior to jumping into RV most timing, I loved to garden. I spent a great deal of time preparing a 40′ x 4′ piece of ground getting it ready for our vegetable garden. The soil was very good to start but we amended that with a couple of years of composting that we had built up. The results were nothing but fantastic. We harvested the sweetest tomatoes, the best greens, Brussel sprouts, snap peas and beans we had ever tasted. I’m sure we all stay this about our gardens :). I loved working the soil in this patch of ground. It became a daily habit to go out and tend it.

Hello folks, yes this is a little tongue in cheek. Our plans changed like I am sure yours have. We were in the middle of bringing Natasha to life when this virus began to rear its ugly head. The trip would have taken us to Destin, FL west on the I-10 corridor for a...
