Lately there has been a lot of interest in viewing photos of the sites that different campgrounds have to offer. Let's start posting them to this thread and if there seems to be enough interest, perhaps we can make the thread a permanent sticky.
If you have recently posted photos of this sort, please re-post them here. If you have new ones to share, please do!
Don't forget to label the photos: Campground name, site #'s if you know them, area of campground, etc.

**A photo width of 500 works really well.
I am taking the liberty of copying here some recent photos submitted by member 'marites62'.
Fishing Bridge - This is site 60 in the B loop - back-in, full hookups (It can be tough for long trailers and 5th wheels):
More of the same site:
Colter Bay Village - This is site 40, Pull through, full hookups. It is at the end of the loop which was nice.

Porcupine Mountains State Park, Michigan.
The site itself was fine, nothing spectacular.
But do you see that little break in the tree line? Lake Superior awaited on the other side. HOLY COW! We did not expect this! These pictures are taken directly behind our site. Beyond amazing.

Some pics from our trip thru Washington and Oregon.
Maryhill State Park Washington. Right on the Columbia. Very interesting sprinkler set up....they are on a timer and come on when they are programmed to. Everywhere you see except for the trailer itself was watered...lol. They did give us a 'schedule' when we checked in, but who pays any attention to that :W Was pretty funny when it happened.
Our pooch when she heard the sprinklers starting to come on...."Please let me in???" She loves water but is a bit of a scaredy-pooch with noises.... "a delicate flower" is how I often refer to her.
LaPine State Park. Very nice park. Was a bit surprised that the Ranger Station was un-manned....never had that happen in Oregon. Great walking/biking trails.
Manama Village at Crater Lake. Boy, when we turned onto the road up to the campground we were beginning to wonder if there was anybody else on the planet....not a single vehicle for the 24 mile twisty climb up. Much relief when we arrived...."Ahhh, this is where everybody is."
Not sure what the involuntary arm spazm was all about....:@
From here we headed out to the Coast to Florence and Manzanita. Too many of the campground pics my DW took have me in them, so I'll spare you that....
Had a great trip, and was able to fend off most questions about 2 people in a 38 foot bunkhouse...."It's my brother-in-law's.....want a beer?"
BIL has asked us if we'd like to store his behemoth at our place this winter, so we already have some plans for Fall and Winter camping in the works :B

Heckuva toad is right! ๐
OK, our contribution: Heise Hot Springs, Idaho - site FHU1
Bear Lake KOA (Utah), site 65 (30 amp FHU, back-to-back hookups; tight when the CG is full!)

This looks like the St. Mary KOA outside Glacier National Park. Probably one of 3 days per year the flags aren't being ripped from the flagpole by the strong winds!
Out of 9 days the only moment the wind didn't blow.
We live near Glacier Park, but on the west side of the Rocky Mountains and continental divide near Flathead Lake. More mild temps, little wind and a lot better scenery. Even the snowfall in winter is less.
As for the St. Mary KOA, it's a good base camp to hike in the park. We love the 22 person jacuzzi.

That's why I sold my toyhauler and now enjoy the view from my laptop.

We stayed 6 nights there and were lucky to have one of those three windless days. For 3 or 4 of them, it was quite ridiculous.
