Questionable Campground Ratings
I don't know how Good Sam arrives at its rating, but my experience differs from the published ratings. We full-timed for 2 years in our Class A diesel pusher and covered a good part of the country. ...

I agree with Dutchmen Sport as NO 2 campers using the same campground have even close to the same opinions of the CG. Even campers with high end MH's have given totally different opinions in the various ratings sites and review sites.
We always love hearing a numbskull with a 40' several hundred thousand dollar MH or 40' 5th wheel with having full hookups and never even once used the CG bathrooms or showers but yet complain about the bathrooms and showers in a CG they stayed in but give them low ratings. Hear it so often!
For crying out loud, you are simply renting, not buying, the site for your RV for a day, a few days, or maybe a week or 2, and then you leave and take all your stuff home or to another CG. Some rarely ever even come out of their RV's during their stay.
If what you really want is a 5 star resort that pampers their behinds, then pay the going price for such but few really want to. They are so often too CHEAP to do it. Yet, then they complain that the normal or average CG sure is not a place to give a 5 out of 10 rating to! Be advised that CG's must be profitable or they will close or go belly up and then RV'ers will have even less choices and because there's less choices, the price will increase too. That law of supply and demand is always alive and well!
