I Want to Camp, but I Don't Own an RV!

Want to go RVing, but you're not ready to commit to the purchase of a new RV? Renting an RV is a great option! With a rental, you can select the length, amenities and whether you would like a class A, class C, or travel trailer. Some rental operations even drop the travel trailer off at a specific campsite for you, so you just show up in your own vehicle and your RV awaits you! For tips on renting, you might want to check out Mark Polk's DVD Class C Rental/Owner. Ready to purchase your RV? Try Polk's An Introduction to RV's to find out all you need to know before you buy.

CampgroundCrazy Ratings

Recently a follower asked me what the criteria is required for a campsite to be rated as a "Best Site" or "Poor Site" in my reviewing process. A best site is usually one that is more spacious, scenic or private than a majority of the sites in the campground. It usually borders a creek, offers spectacular views and/or is more secluded than other sites. Poor sites are usually those that are near a restroom (for some this could be a positive, but for us it is a negative as we are self-contained), near a dump/trash cans, is less private, or is near an entrance where you might experience more road traffic. Occasionally, poor sites have steep grades, low clearance or poor conditions that limit the ability to use multiple slide outs or camp comfortably. As with any campground review, CampgroundCrazy's recommendations are opinion based, based on our actual camping experience, and conditions may change over time (i.e., campground remodel). I always welcome comments to help keep reviews more current!
