Re: Yellowstone Park Campgrounds
Thanks for all the information. I like the idea of staying at atleast two different campgrounds. We will be going to the Grand Tetons either before or after the Yellowstone trip. I am leaning towards after Yellowstone. We are really looking forward to this trip. We won't have a toad with us, so we will be traveling the park in the motorhome.327Views0likes0CommentsYellowstone Park Campgrounds
Okay folks, we are heading out to Yellowstone National Park and the Grand Tetons/Jacksonhole area this year. We will be traveling in a Class C and want to spend at least a week in Yellowstone. Who has stayed in the campgrounds in Yellowstone and which do you prefer. We are considering splitting our trip up between two different campgrounds. Any information that you can pass on will be helpful... Thanks3.8KViews0likes9CommentsRe: Third times the charm?
I can say that I am not satisfied with the service I have received, or rather not received from Camping World. We bought a used motor home from them. Every time we try to go back for routine service, we are told it is at least a 3-4 week waiting period, even for an oil change.0Views0likes0CommentsFlorida camping???
We will be traveling to Florida soon. We are planning a trip to Winter Haven to visit LEGOLand and then on to Key west. this will be a two week trip. Does anyone have any comments on the campgrounds in Winter Haven, the Gulf Coast or Key West campgrounds? I would love to hear your views of them and the routes to them. We will be entering Florida on I-95 and then can go any way. We will be traveling in a Class C M/H without a toad. Thanks for your help...1.5KViews0likes4CommentsRe: Driving Route 66

Alot of the old road does not exist and you will find yourself on the interstate, I-40, so look for websites to give you info on where to get off. Search Galena, KS and you can find Mater from Cars. There are many other small attractions that are not worth a separate trip but worth driving past on your way. Makes a nice photo op. I remember that a piece of Rt 66 was on the north side of I-40 in the Painted Desert and you won't find it unless you drove the roads through the desert and forest. They had car parts at one spot and looking along the telephone lines you could see where the road was but not from any other angle. This happens in many, many of the areas. Don't expect to drive 66 for very long at any one time as it really does not exist in that aspect. It is is most of the small towns and is preserved partially but not like it was. Two weeks for the trip there and back, LA to Chicago, might be a little quick unless you plan to just drive back straight through. On edit: Another link that will give info on the old road is here. You should to a Google search 'Route 66 attractions' for many other sites to help you find the old road. This one also The return trip we have two weeks for.653Views0likes0CommentsRe: Driving Route 66

I think there are still some Route 66 roadways in Calif but havent done those myself... Roy Ken I should have mentioned we live on the east coast, that's why we are traveling that far. I am planning on riding Route 66 until St. Louis and then getting of to head home.653Views0likes0CommentsDriving Route 66
Hey there everyone... I would like to know who has drive Route 66. We are planning on tracing the route west to east in a 24' motorhome. Has anyone had any experience doing this? Any places to avoid? Best places to see along the route? We will not be towing a dinghy this time, so most places would have accessible to a motorhome. We will have two weeks to make the journey. Also does anyone have recommendations for camping or parking along the route? Thanks in advance. John3KViews0likes12CommentsRe: Yellowstone area camping help
WOW... a lot of useful information. I will be checking these out when I get home tonight. I know three weeks will not be enough time (is it ever), but for our first trip, its the best I can do now for work. we have found that our most fun trips are when we have no plans but just go where the front wheels lead. but going this far I need to have some kind of plan. Many thanks to everyone who has replied...336Views0likes0CommentsYellowstone area camping help
Hi there everyone. I have a question to ask anyone experienced with camping in and around Yellowstone National Park. We will be heading there this summer on our first cross country road trip from SC. Our plans are a 2-3 week trip up to Mt Rushmore and Devils Tower area, and then on to Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, and Jackson Hole. Our RV is a class C 24' motor home. What are your opinions about the campgrounds out there? Has anyone done any boondock camping out that way? Does anyone have any tips for traveling out there? Any ideas on what to see other then the obvious? We will have 3 adult and 2 kids traveling. We have made many east coast trips, but have never been west of the Mississippi River. Thanks in advance for your help... John3.8KViews0likes15Comments
