Where were you with your NEWMAR today?

Somewhere between frustrated and outraged.

Which park at Bodega Bay? The one right at the marina is a nice location if you can get in on short notice, but this is probably still non- commercial crab season and its a busy place when thats going on. But there will be plenty of crab every night. The surrounding CGs look nice but I still havent made it to them so if you do please report your findings. And yes, pics are mandatory

Porto Bodega marina and RV park. Made reservations yesterday morning. We got a water side spot. Wife decided she did not want to experience dry camping for the first trip. In a few weeks we will go to Ocean Cove and Boondock for a night or two.

Congrats! Pictures are required here ya know

I will post from our first trip. I didn't take any pics on our ride home, it was a seven hour drive straight thru. Looking forward to a relaxing ride this weekend.

Waterside spot on short notice - nicely done. You’ll enjoy it. Walk up the one-lane road to the Birds Cafe and the grocery/deli across the street. Lots of good stuff there.

Wow! Love it! I’m a NH, ME, and VT leaf peeper when I get a chance and this rivals what Ive seen there.

Catherine's Landing, Hot Springs, AR

Nice campground along a river/lake with lots of activities. Nice town nearby with everything you could want from dining to retail. Sites are nice, staff friendly, no complaints.

Cellular: AT&T good, Verizon no good
Starlink: Good except for deprioritized in evenings but still good enough for streaming YouTube TV
Campground Wi-Fi: good but not used
SAT: Just pick the right site if you are a SAT user, plenty of wide open sites
Cable: good
Dog parks: several in the campground, a really nice one we discovered today opposite side of the CG while on a long walk and then dog park time.

Well shoot, missed opportunity. We were there 10/17 for an overnight stop on our way back home (N Dallas) I did take a short walk but we were on the older side (left as you enter) of the campground in a pull through. Those back in sites along the river are really nice in the summer. That water is seriously cold as it's coming out of the Lake Hamilton Dam just a short way up stream and the river sites are noticeably cooler on a Texas summer day. I sure would have looked you up If I saw that windshield cover.

Neal,

Were you at Santa Fe Skys RV park about a month ago? I saw a pic of your RV with the RVForums stone flap above and realized I saw a similar bus with the same flap on it in Santa Fe.

JGW RV park right on the Sacramento River in Anderson on I-5 just south of Redding. Big travel day - about 150 miles. But we planed to leave home at about 1pm and got pretty close to that after final prep, taking the horses down the road, picking up the dogs from the groomer (always like to start out with clean dogs) taking to my neighbor about his generator - all that important stuff.

Managed to get here before 5pm. After that you are considered a “late arrival” and your welcome packet will be on the bulletin board outside the office. The park is clean, well developed and managed, and in good shape. And we have friendly neighbors. It has a pool, and wifi and cable although I haven’t tried either. Cell service (Verizon) seems adequate. The river is nice, there is a boat ramp suitable for small fishing boats, and the park is along the lines of a good KOA. For us, it‘s just a one night stopover on the way to the Northern Ca Coast. Tomorrow we traverse 299 and start our coastal travels.

As far as parks with pull through sites and 50a service in this area and right on the Sacramento River go, this one seems to be among the best and its $58/night for transients like me. I would say they also have monthly, if not long term rates as well.
