    TripAdvisor doesn't verify its reviews. Not all that long ago it was fined by Italy for posting false reviews.

    I have been using http://www.rvparkreviews.com for 8 yrs, web site is dedicated solely for RVing with over 200k reviews.

    as far posting reviews it's pretty basic... post a few descriptive sentences about the park and if you have any criticism just be polite/constructive and you will be fine.

    If you have any further questions about RVPR I would recommend posting questions on their forum. Lots of good folks there! :)

  • You can us this to actually see the campsite if it is listed.

  • A new one that seems to be slowly but very surely gaining ground and getting a lot of support from some well known full timers choosing to contribute is Campendium.com. Might be worth keeping an eye on the growth of that one for future beneficial use. Hearing a lot of frustrations lately about RVParkReviews making it too inconvenient for those willing to take the time to contribute.

    Just saying .....
  • Rvparkreviews.com. But you have to take some of the reviews with a grain of salt. What one person decides makes a park terrible is meaningless to another person. And some negative reviews are obviously due to someone feeling slighted by a particular person at a park. Look at the trend of the reviews. If the majority are good with a scattering of bad, then the park is probably ok. And if the majority are bad with a few good, then be wary of it. Throw out the exceptions and go with the trend.
  • A good place to start is Good Sam Club's page.
