Country Livin RV Park – Foley, AL

Country Livin is a small RV Park with no amenities except the unsecured WiFi .

The campground is not within walking distance of any attractions. There is no cable TV and no phone and there appeared to be questionable inhabitants in the park.  The trailer that I stayed in has been broken into; gasket removed from the window and glass taken out. Previous occupant of the trailer that I stayed in had moved out and kept the key to the one that I stayed in.

The manager stays in a dilapidated 5th wheel and does little to monitor what actually goes. I do not recommend this RV park… I do not feel safe and it is not family-friendly.

We stayed at Lakefront Lodge this winter (2010) while traveling through South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley.

We had a very nice full-hookup site that was large and level with nice views of Falcon Lake. There’s a boat launch right in the park which makes it a great place to boat and fish. There’s some truly great bass fishing to be done here… and we saw many fisherman return with some of the largest bass you’ve ever seen.

Next time, we’re bringing our rods… and staying longer.

I really enjoyed my stay here. I am a full time RRer and this is the cleanest campground I have been to in awhile.

The staff and maintenance man were extremely helpful and friendly. The amenities were nice. The laundry rooms and restrooms were always clean. The cable and WI-FI worked great too. I will stay here again.

Passaconaway Campground, Conway, New Hampshire 03818
During a road trip through New England in June 2009, we decided to spend some time in the White Mountains. We visited three of the National Forest Service Campgrounds. Dolly Copp is the biggest, but in our opinion, too crowded. Jigger Johnson offers hot showers and electric service, therefore is very popular. At Passaconaway there are no hookups. Water spigots are available to fill your tanks and vault toilets. The rustic nature of the place appealed to us.

If you’ve got a big rig, I would recommend parking at the gate and taking a short walking tour to determine if you are comfortable driving in. Some turns are tight and there are some low branches.

The camp host does a nice job keeping the place clean and firewood is available at his site. Several hiking trails begin at the parking area across the highway. We enjoyed three nights of quiet seclusion. If dry camping appeals to you, this is a nice place to spend some time.

Bentsen Palm RV Park – Mission, TX

Bentsen Palm RV Park is a very highly rated campground by all the usual: Good Sam, TL, etc. We found it to be beautifully landscaped and very clean. There’s a large dog park and a nearby birding park which added to our interest.

We found this to be a mostly motor home/giant 5th wheel park of winter Texans who appeared to come for the whole season each year. There wasn’t much room for newcomers–social circles are pretty tight.

The thing that we liked least is not the park’s fault, but an issue for us. The park is very close to the border and Border Patrol helicopters flew at night frequently awakening us, back and forth. The newspaper was full of stories about shootings and there were tales in the park of having to go to the movie theater in the am so as to avoid your truck being stolen.

I suppose if you wanted to stay within the gates, wear ear plugs to bed, and venture out only in groups during the daylight this isn’t a problem. We like the Tex-Mex culture a lot–but this patch of ground seems to be under seige.
