Campground Descriptions ~ Just Thinking

I think in most cases you can just assume the advertising is a lie. Nobody is going to advertise their RV park as a dump, even though many are. What I typically do first if it is a place I've never stayed, is check the Google Earth photo of the place. You can tell from that if the roads are paved, how much space between the sites, and how far they really are from attractions. For example there is park named Monterey Vacation RV Park. Their website says they are near Monterey and just minutes from the coast. In fact they are 30 miles from Monterey and the closest ocean access is 15 miles. Not knocking the park because it is a decent place, but their name and advertising give the people the impression that this is a coastal RV park and it's not. It's way inland and right next to the freeway.
