Hi there,

I have been living at Tall Timbers RV Park in Tyler, Texas for 3 years and I noticed that their website is not listed on Good Sam. They are the best RV Park in Tyler, Texas for long-term stays due to their location and proximity to other businesses nearby. Their website is https://www.ttrv.org

Hi my name is Diane.  My husband Rick and I bought our first motor home 2024 Jayco, Alante 29 S. We both camped most of our lives but not in a motor home. The only thing I have done is back it into the side yard. It was pretty easy.  Hopefully, tomorrow Sunday will be the first time I drive it to a close by campground. My husband already looks like a pro when he drives it.  We live in CA.  I am very excited to join a group of RV'ers.

Hello RVers, I am new to this forum but not to RVing.  My wife and I purchased a 2021 Thor Windsport.  Has anyone added a Thorton Chip to improve hp and mileage to your motorhome and if so, are you happy with it?

Howdy y'all,

My name is Jackie and my gf is Blanche.  I'm an Army retiree and she just retired retired in April. We've just bought a Forest River Salem Cruise Lite and have taken it on a 3-day shake-down trip nearby. I'm hoping to attend Bluegrass festivals wherever they are held.

Thanks for your comments.

Michel, I recommend joining Harvest Host. They have a wonderful listing of free or cheap camping and boondocking spots.  We have visited several wineries through them. Great to stop and have some good wine and food after a long day on the road.

Hi. Name is Guy. Retired and playing vagabond for a while. Most winters I stay at Bentsen Grove Resort, just outside McAllen TX. Actually I guess im pretty boring with not much to say about myself.

Hi Good Sam travellers. My wife Reta and I ( Bruce) are from Alberta and we're planning an RV trip through Montana, Idaho, Wyoming and Utah. Looking forward to the beautiful sites and staying mostly in State Parks.  I'm having some trouble finding info on State park camping and what is reservable or not.  Advice?

Most, if not all states have a state park web site.  I have no experience at Federal parks as I’ve visited many , but don’t stay at them. Reservations and what’s available can be found at the state park web site. Your success in reserving a camp site will often depend on where, what time of year and even days of the week. Popular destination often require making reservations many months in advance depending their reservation system. 
To each his own, but we prefer private RV parks near an attraction, rather than staying at the attractions campground itself. 
good luck and safe travels.

I rely on a few books available on Amazon. There is Fed, State, BLM, COE and my favorite, America City and Town Parks.
