RE: National forest campgrounds Wy 287/26

The Ultimate US Public Campground Project will show you all US Forest Service campgrounds. It includes many smaller campgrounds and dispersed camping areas that you won't find elsewhere. It also includes BLM and all other public campgrounds, from the federal level to state, county and city facilities.

RE: Maine Seacoast Sights

One of our favorite Maine campgrounds is Lobster Buoy Campsites in South Thomaston. It's really an old-fashioned, small campground with some delightful waterfront sites. And it's only a short walk to Waterman's Lobster Pound for the absolutely bestest lobster roll you will ever find.
There are plenty of lighthouses all along the coast - here are some pix.
Here are some pictorial reviews and comments of some other Maine CG's:
Camden Hills SP
Lamoine SP
Winslow Park in Freeport.
Overnight parking is allowed in Freeport in the LL Bean/municipal parking lots on the east side of Main Street.
Seawall CG in Acadia NP.
Have a great trip and enjoy the lobstah!

RE: Please tell me about Iowa

Ah, I think I could easily spend a month in Iowa. What particularly appeals to me are the dozens and dozens of small city and county campgrounds all across the state. What a great way to know some of the local folks. You can find just about all of them at:
Iowa Public Campgrounds
Have a great trip!

RE: New Mexico Camping Taxes

You should have considered staying in NM state parks for the 7 weeks you were there. By buying the NM annual parks pass, you can camp for free without hookups at state parks or pay $4 a night for hookups. The pass pays for itself in about three weeks.

RE: Erie Canal NY Campgrounds

Tent camping is allowed at Lock 30 in Macedon. I don't know if you can park your RV there overnight or not. Here's the website for camping at other locations along the canal.

RE: RV/MH Hall of Fame, Elkhart, IN

We stopped there a year or two ago and had no problem parking for the night. I checked inside when we first arrived and they said "No problem".

RE: Sites along I90

Hey - we're almost neighbors! We live in Charlton right next door to Sturbridge. Congrats on that new Class C in your future.
We've covered a lot of the territory you mentioned on our last two trips out west. If you're interested, you can read about them and peruse some pictures on our Toad Hall web site. Choose the Our Travels menu option and away you go.
A must on your way to Yellowstone is the Beartooth Highway - we enjoyed it so much that we spent a night up on top at just over 10,000 feet. What a gorgeous sunrise!
Under the Campground Reviews menu option you'll find reviews with pictures of all the campgrounds we've visited in the last few years, including those trips out west.
Have a great trip! There is so much to see.

RE: St Joseph SP

St Joseph is one of our favorite spots in FL. We prefer the Gulf Breeze area - more open. Here are some pix and comments from our visits there.

RE: Campground/RV Park Sturbridge MA, Oct. 2013

Another possibility is Partridge Hollow CG in Monson - it's pretty nice. Although there are a lot of seasonals there, they have some sites for short-termers, and sites aren't quite as crowded together as at Jellystone or Sunsetview Farm. Wells SP would be my preference, but they don't have hookups. Be aware that most campgrounds close Columbus Day Monday in this neck of the woods.

RE: Getting ready for Florida need help

We've spent a lot of time in FL in recent years, spending most winters there wandering around. You can find journals with pictures of our FL adventures at the web site in my signature block below. Just click on "Our Travels" and then "Florida".

RE: Favorite COE parks?

COE parks are definitely great places to visit. They're well-designed, very clean and a fantastic deal with the old folks pass. But there are also lots of other very nice public campgrounds out there: not only state parks, but cities and counties often operate some nice parks, and they're usually a good deal price-wise. The National Park Service, the US Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management also operate some very nice campgrounds.
In the past few years, we've visited nearly 300 of them and have prepared reviews with pictures and comments.
