Sunset Isle RV Park, Cedar Key, FL Site 19 2/15/09










Sunset Isle's location is perfect for visiting Cedar Key. We really enjoyed our stay here. Some sites are waterfront but even if you are not directly on the water you can still walk out on one of the docks. The name of the campground says it all - you can see a beautiful sunset from the docks. You might also be lucky enough to see some beautiful birds right off the docks. The owners are very nice and helpful. The sites are kind of tight but we had plenty of room for our tow vehicle and to put the slides out. There is a very nice club house with a fireplace. Some nights you might be lucky enough to hear an impromptu jam session. Our site was full hookup with cable. WiFi is available at the office. Cedar Key is a birder's paradise. We enjoyed going out on Captain Doug's Tidewater Tours.

Would we come here again? ABSOLUTELY!!!

Hillsborough River State Park, Tampa, FL Site 107 12/1/2008

Hillsborough River is another of our favorite parks. Some of the sites are tight for our rig so be sure to read the description of the site before making your reservation. It is a very popular park and fills up on weekends. The bath house is spotless. We had a large, pull through site. This is a beautiful park with lots of trees and nice trails along the river. We come here about twice a year. Great camp hosts!

3/8/2009 Site 106
We returned to Hillsborough River in March, 2009 and stayed in site 106. This site is another large, wooded pull through site. The bath houses again were spotless! We enjoyed this stay as much as the previous one.

Stephen C. Foster State Park, Fargo, GA Site 64 11/30/2008


Stephen C. Foster is one of our favorite places to camp. We have stayed here several times in December when it is almost empty. We stayed once in March when it was almost full and we enjoy it both ways. We like to stay in one of the large premium pull throughs. The bath house is spotless. Be sure to bring your own groceries when you come as it is a long way to anywhere. There is a nice gift shop and store with limited groceries and ice.

Harvest Moon RV Park Adairsville, GA Site 18 11/12/2008

Harvest Moon RV Park Site 18
This park is big rig friendly and convenient to I-75 north of Atlanta. Even though this campground is in an urban setting it was very quiet. The owner was helpful and even had free popcorn for us when we checked in. A good place for an overnight stop.

Cave Country RV Park Cave City, KY 11/10/2008

Cave Country RV Park is a nice big-rig friendly park just off of the interstate. All the sites were large, gravel level pull throughs with full hookups. We stayed here for a visit to Mammoth Cave. It is located about 10 miles from the entrance to the national park and there are several restaurants including a Cracker Barrel within walking distance. The owner was very nice and helpful. Our dog really enjoyed being able to run off leash in the large fenced in dog walk area.

The only negative about this park would be the train track that runs right behind the park. We like the sound of the train but some people may not enjoy it.

Would we stay here again? YES

Kentucky Horse Park Lexington, KY Site 159 11/6/08

The Kentucky Horse Park Campground is a beautiful state park just north of Lexington. Our site was a level, paved back in with a huge grassy area behind the site. The sites have water and electric, with no sewer at the site but there are two dump stations. After November 1 there is no water at the site so we only had electric while we were there. The laundry room and bath houses were very clean.

Would we stay here again? YES

River Plantation RV Park, Sevierville, TN Site 430 11/4/2008

River Plantation is a very nice park located close to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, Pigeon Forge, and Gatlenburg. It is easy to get to from I-40. All the sites were big-rig friendly - long and wide. Our full hookup site was on the river with a fire ring and picnic table. The laundry room was clean. I would highly recommend this park if you are planning a trip to this area.

Would we stay here again? YES
