National (Federal) Park Statistics

Since you used http://www.reserveamerica.com/ and http://www.rvparkreviews.com/ as sources. Both these site are still full of miss information and options of people "getting" back at campground owners. I've been at several of the campground listed both private and public campground, there are still miss information list for those campgrounds.

Just to let you know I do prefer boondocking to organized campgrounds.

There are surveys done for different reasons. This information helps RVers figure out if they CAN stay there. They probably already know WHY they want to stay there.

It's interesting data. People on this site are always asking what length MH they should buy if they want to stay in National Parks and what cell phone service works best for camping. Here's a least some data.

We use Verison because we found it works almost everywhere we've gone around the country. We have a 45' MH and almost always find a spot to stay in any area we want to stay. Including NP and SP's.

Maryland has two national parks - Assateague and Greenbelt - that have rv camping.

If you only pulled data from reserveamerica, you missed all the non-reservable sites. Recreation.gov is a better source.

Virginia is listed as having 22 "parks." Are these campgrounds? What designates something as a "park?"

Indiana is spelled wrong.

On average 52% of all Federal campsites were at least 40 feet long, but a number of reviewers mentioned bad or winding park roads in Federal parks.

Verizon was the most mentioned successful cell service. AT&T was a distant 2nd place, Sprint a very distant 3rd, and T-Mobile not at all.

Yikes.

Site length/road access and cell phone service being measurements of the success of our National Parks.

Who knew?
