Campground Reviews for January, 2008
Kamp Klamath RV Park – Klamath, CA
My name is Anne Hughes and I stayed at Kamp Klamath September 1, 2007. This is the most pathetic excuse for an RV park I’ve ever seen. The web site makes the campground look wonderful and that’s why we booked reservations there… but you’d be hard pressed to find anything there that looks like the web site.
Winter Island Park – Salem, MA
If you like camping in a parking lot, Winter Island Park is your place to go! It is in located Salem, Massachusetts, and they charge alot! This was originally a Coast Guard post, and still looks like it, minus the campground atmosphere. When we finally found it, we came to a guard house… then we finally found the office, which is in the back of the armory, the people are nice, but don’t seem to be very knowledgeable! They each say you need to talk to another person to get any answers.
Cottonwood Campground – Theodore Roosevelt National Park, ND
WOW…I’d like to say that Cottonwood Campground was horrible and the hosts were mean and grumpy; but I’d be lying. It’s a great campground with sites for everybody from tents to trucks. We were secluded and comfortably shaded with a sprawling view of the Little Missouri River Valley. Wildlife was a constant presence to be [...]
The Roost Resort – Custer, SD
If you can’t find an RV park or campground near Custer, South Dakota, you just aren’t looking. The billboards and signs are a distraction from the natural beauty of the area. Most places we saw from the road were no-shade, lined-up tight RV Parks. If you read enough of my stuff, you know we seldom make reservations. I had a list of three places to look at, and Roost Resort was a decisive winner.
They really feature top-of-the-line cabins and cottages, and have a small campground in the back of the property. Class A’s and large 5ths would be pushing the envelope here. There’s only a few sites on the property, each with a great view of the Black Hills. Only two-way hook-up is available and a dump station upon departure. Everything about the property is clean, quaint and quiet.
Badlands Interior Campground – Badlands, SD
Here’s a good reason to be flexible in your travel plans. As a base to visit Wall, South Dakota and the Badlands, we planned to stay at the National Park Campground. When we got there in early September it was over 100 degrees hot. We don’t have a generator and the National Park does not have electric. We would have had to live without a fan of any kind!
Just a mile south you’ll find the Interior Campground and Motel. The sites are level gravel with little or no shade just like the National Park. For four dollars more, you can have full hook-up. We would have preferred the view from the National Park, but the heat was intense.
