Customer Reviews

Excellent campground book!

Other guides that my husband and I have used are filled with cold and sterile facts about each campground. This book, however, provides easy to read, heart-felt narratives, with accurate opinions as to what to expect at each campground. It is extremely helpful for us to know that a campground has no privacy, is very crowded, or is nothing more than an "asphalt parking lot." This book is more than a simple listing of the number of sites, how to get there, and other innocuous facts. A truly great guide for all campers!

An indispensable guide for car campers.

This guide rates and reviews hundreds of campgrounds including county parks which are often overlooked by other guides. It is illustrated with black and white photographs and contains a helpful index by rating. Campgrounds are rated from 1 to 5. 5 means it is a perfect, not to be missed site; 1 means it is acceptable only when desperate. Reviews are one paragraph to a page or more in length and include reservation information, number of sites, facilities, maps and driving directions, as well as nearby recreational activities. Reviews give the reader a clear idea of what to expect from each campground. Look for key words and phrases that tell all: secluded, private, remote, too darn crowded, hordes of day visitors, or too much asphalt. This is a detailed, well-organized guide. Don't leave home without it!.
