Campsite issues with longer 5ers?

[bluwtrman]

In the process of comparing TH options, I've been told there are lots of CGs that don't have sites large enough to park the 40+ footers. How much should I factor this into my decision process?

Like mentioned it depends on where you wish to stay. We've only been a couple campground/RV parks that didn't have anything for our 38' toyhauler, but we usually check ahead of time so we aren't disappointed. Most private campgrounds will be able to squeeze you in if they aren't already occupied. Longer rigs do limit your options, you just have to decide if it's worth it.

We camp mainly in SP and NP campgrounds - as the prior poster said,often they were built before the latest generation of BIG campers. We've seen several times where the campsite itself might have been long enough, but the narrow twisty roads in the campground caused lots of backing up and cursing. We love our 20' trailer!

What kinds of camp grounds? NF campgrounds in many parts of the country were build years ago when a large RV was 25 feet. In those cases, you will be SOL. Newer private parks generally have been built to accomodate the monster RVs people today choose.
