I had this same experience from NC to CA 2 years ago, 7200 mile road trip. 5 Star rating, well that needs to be taken in account that at one time maybe.
Without wanting to hijack this thread, if you are referring to a 5-Diamond rating from Woodalls or the equivalent from Good Sam, are you aware that most of these are not actually ratings assigned by someone who has visited the CG? It is my understanding that parks are visited infrequently and that most are simply sent a questionnaire to complete. The "rating" is an evaluation solely of the presence or absence of the things on the list. So the existence of a laundry room with a single washer/dryer would count the same as a large room filled with lots of them.
That's why we don't use those other guides in deciding where to stay. I'm not at all claiming that the reviews in RVParkReviews.com are perfect, far from it, but at least they are written by people who have at least visited the parks.
