I full time and after the first couple of months of coming off the road late in the pm and pulling into crummy CG's if you even can find them from the directions provided found off the ole Woodalls book? First that old fat Woodalls Book went out the window.
Then I started staying exclusively at KOA's . No surprises, their CG catalog has very precise directions to the CG AND phone numbers for the CG that actually work. All the CG's in the USA are listed neatly by state and city and pictures of each CG.
Since it's a franchise the CG's have standards that they have to adhere to to maintain the KOA name. No more surprises for me. That's why I choose to use them whenever possible in my travels.
Except for CG's near a popular attraction (which ALL CG's near attractions have higher rates),I found KOA rates are NOT higher than other comparable CG's. Join their membership and you get discounts and free camping.
