Where were you with your NEWMAR today?

Evidently there is a cleanliness standard at the Hilton Head Harbor RV Resort and I didn’t make the cut. I was ticketed by the bug police (cough) @NWIP. ?

There are advantages to not being willing to spend money on high dollar campgrounds. Something I won't have to worry about.

ARD .... That’s tooooo funny. Now you have blue bugs. ?

We are currently staying in the Promise Land State Park in the Poconos. It’s so beautiful and quiet up here. With only 50amp service we are challenging our boondocking abilities. So far so good. The first night we were here it was 34 degrees. We love our warm Ventana LE.View attachment 3765View attachment 3766View attachment 3767View attachment 3768

What a happy looking group!

You know you have made it to the Keys when you go over Channel 5 Bridge.. That's what my Mumsy says. It has been fabulous having a mother-daughter adventure. Staying at Grassy Key RV Park & Resort and spending time with my brother. It just doesn't get better. ?

@ARD , envy here!

Our last journey took us to three different KOA's and a State Park. 1,040 total miles. I already posted on Promise Land State Park so here are the rest.

Elizabethtown/Hershey PA KOA : We loved this Park. Large pull through lots. Great Wifi. Cell coverage. Great family Park if you have kids. Quiet and peaceful.
Bellefonte/State College PA KOA: We enjoyed this Park as well. Same reasons as above. Only negative ..... road noise from the Interstate about a mile away.
Harrisonburg/Shenandoah Valley VA KOA: Two thumbs down. Will not go back. Not level. Lots too close together. Our fire pit was 5' from the neighbors sewer line.
Water pressure was low. Had several electrical surges with one full power outage. Difficult to drive through Park. Very tight.

Since we are new to RV'ing we are starting off with KOA's. As we get more experienced we will start looking into the RV Resorts.

@skychs - resorts can be very expensive at 150/night depending where. For another discussion but I recommend looking into State Parks instead of resorts for a far better camping experience at a fraction of the cost.

 

[skychs]

Every trip so far has included a State Park ..... Letchworth, Hungry Mother and Promise Land. The only problem with those .... limited utilities. Some with no water or sewer. No Wifi. Limited cell coverage. We can live without technology but staying 4-5 days with no water/sewer is a challenge.

Over the years, we've found that state parks vary widely, from great to horrid. It seems to depend a lot on the state and its commitment to parks. You need to do your research in advance.

Why only Newmars?

Why only Newmars?

This was something I started on another site that became and still is tremendously popular and also one of the greatest marketing assets to Newmar. The purpose behind this is people in their brand like seeing other vehicles of the same brand, i.e. Ford Mustang people like their mustangs, camaros, jeeps, whatever. So this one is specific to Newmar, anyone that wants a similar thread for their brand feel free to start one. I also created one that is not brand specific for those that want to post there.

I like hearing about these experiences - don’t care what rig.

Ernie ..... Two Rivers RV Resort looks beautiful. We will put that on our list. We are headed that way next weekend. The first couple of nights we were able to swap out a KOA for Anchor Down RV Resort in Dandridge TN. Thanks to Neal I took note of the two different addresses. One a physical address of the Park and the second .... the billing address. After TN we plan to spend the rest of the trip up in the Daniel Boone National Forest in KY.

Anchor Down is a very nice campground. We scouted it for future use, try for a lakefront site. Scenic drives not to be missed are: Roaring Fork motor trail; Tremont Logging auto tour before you reach Cades Cove, Rich Mountain trail on the right after you are in Cades Cove; and of course Blue Ridge Parkway
