- Opie431ExplorerSeveral campgrounds in the Daniel Boone NF have electricity and decent sized lots.
No sardine can lots. - edm3rdExplorerLong Pool CG near Dover, AR a few miles north of Russellville and I-40 (exit 81 take AR Hwy 7 north).

- TrailerTravele1ExplorerHas anyone camped in Shawnee National Forest (southern Illinois) at either Pounds Hollow or Lake Glendele. Both campgrounds have some sites with electricity and Lake Glendale has electric and water. But descriptions sound better for Pounds Hollow. Any first hand experience? We're headed there Monday 9.14 for a week.

Merrill and Almanor.

Interesting. Neither the Lassen NF website nor forestcamping.com lists Almanor north or south as having hookups. :h
We've stayed in Merrill twice now. It's a great campground with lots of space for each site. There are 6 loops. The 2 closest to the water are dry camping. The next 2 are water and electric and the outer loops have full hook ups. It's about an hour north of Susanville, Ca. - Texas_Roadrunn1ExplorerThanks so much for the link, I will definitely have a look, will save me lots of work.

Go to this site, pick a National Forest. From that page, pick a campground from the list. This will take you to a list of the CG's in that NF. Using the search feature on your browser, type in "hookups" and using that, scroll down the page to each occurrence of the word "hookups". You will find it either says no or gives some detail about the types of hookups available at each CG. I use this method when we are travelling far from home and don't know what types of facilities are available. I do the same thing to search for "Flush Toilets" at each CG. DW is always a little happier with CG's with those facilities.
We also used the old Coleman book and it's a shame it wasn't updated. Then we found this site and used it a lot. It's especially good for directions and RV size.

Dow's Forest Camping Site - Texas_Roadrunn1ExplorerThanks so much for posting all these. I purposely phrased the question with no parameters hoping to get answers from all over the U.S. I will try to post a list according to the NF so if you can remember any CG names or find them on a website and let me know, I would love to include them. I have an old NFCG book published by Coleman, but I have found that either the electrical hook ups have been omitted or perhaps they have been added since the book was published. Thanks again.
